About this listen
Write a letter, heal your heart . . .
Hidden away in a corner of the Ginza neighbourhood is a venerable stationery shop. To venture inside is to find everything your stationery-loving heart desires, from the most delicate paper to fountain pens that fit exactly to the shape of your hand to gorgeously coloured inks. The shop owner intuits your every need, inviting you to take a seat at a small wooden table on the top floor, where you'll find the words flowing, helping you unlock repressed memories, secret longings and your own mysteries.
To this shop comes a young company employee, uncertain in his career and needing a connection back to his past; the hostess of an elegant club; the vice-captain of a high-school archery team, an ageing businessman and a formerly homeless sushi chef. With impeccable manners and a warm demeanour, the shop owner helps each of them with more than just their stationery needs.©2024 Kenji Ueda (P)2024 Bonnier Books UK
This was a bit of a letdown. The cover is beautiful and the concept had so much potential, a collection of stories revolving around a traditional stationery shop, letters, and human connection. I really thought I was in for something warm and moving. But the pacing felt slow in a way that didn’t pull me in, and I struggled to connect with the characters. There are five stories in total, and I only really cared about one of them. The rest felt a bit forgettable.
Boring and forgettable unfortunately
