初次见面后，两人继续偶尔见面，分享食物，喝清酒，随着季节的变化--从春天的樱花到秋天的蘑菇--月子和老师逐渐发展出一种犹豫不决的亲密关系，并尴尬而凄美地发展为爱情。《东京的奇怪天气》温馨有趣，感人至深。本版附赠故事《游行》，想象了这对不寻常的夫妇生活中平凡的一天。

'Enchanting, moving and funny in equal measure, this compelling love story is expertly crafted against a backdrop of modern Japanese culture' StylistTsukiko is in her late 30s and living alone when one night she happens to meet one of her former high school teachers, 'Sensei', in a bar.
