书籍简介

25岁的Takako一直享受着相对轻松的生活--直到有一天，她的男友Hideaki，也就是她期望结婚的男人，随意地宣布他一直在欺骗她，并要和另一个女人结婚。突然间，高子的生活陷入了困境。她失去了工作、朋友和熟人，并陷入深深的抑郁之中。在她绝望的深处，她接到了她远方叔叔Satoru的电话。

佐藤是一个不寻常的人，他一直在追求非传统的生活，尤其是在他的妻子桃子五年前突然离开他之后，佐藤在东京的图书区神保町经营一家书店。高子曾经看不起Satoru的生活。现在，她不情愿地接受了他的提议，免去了书店上面的小房间的租金，以换取在店里的帮助。此举只是暂时的，直到她能够重新站起来。但在接下来的几个月里，高子给自己带来了惊喜，她对日本文学产生了浓厚的兴趣，成为当地咖啡店的常客，并在那里结识了新朋友，还认识了附近一家出版社的年轻编辑，他正经历着自己混乱的失恋。

但就在她开始重新找到快乐的时候，秀明又出现了，迫使高子再次依靠她的叔叔，而她叔叔自己的生活也开始崩溃了。这些看似对立的人在一起，在继续分享他们在书店获得的智慧时，努力理解对方和自己。

Twenty-five-year-old Takako has enjoyed a relatively easy existence—until the day her boyfriend Hideaki, the man she expected to wed, casually announces he’s been cheating on her and is marrying the other woman. Suddenly, Takako’s life is in freefall. She loses her job, her friends, and her acquaintances, and spirals into a deep depression. In the depths of her despair, she receives a call from her distant uncle Satoru.

An unusual man who has always pursued something of an unconventional life, especially after his wife Momoko left him out of the blue five years earlier, Satoru runs a second-hand bookshop in Jimbocho, Tokyo’s famous book district. Takako once looked down upon Satoru’s life. Now, she reluctantly accepts his offer of the tiny room above the bookshop rent-free in exchange for helping out at the store. The move is temporary, until she can get back on her feet. But in the months that follow, Takako surprises herself when she develops a passion for Japanese literature, becomes a regular at a local coffee shop where she makes new friends, and eventually meets a young editor from a nearby publishing house who’s going through his own messy breakup.

But just as she begins to find joy again, Hideaki reappears, forcing Takako to rely once again on her uncle, whose own life has begun to unravel. Together, these seeming opposites work to understand each other and themselves as they continue to share the wisdom they’ve gained in the bookshop.
