Tucked away on a narrow side street in Tokyo is the Torunka Caf�, a neighborhood nook where the passersby are as likely to be local cats as tourists. Its regulars include Chinatsu Yukimura, a mysterious young woman who always leaves behind a napkin folded into the shape of a ballerina; Hiroyuki Yumata, a middle-aged man who's returned to the neighborhood searching for the happy life he once gave up; and Shizuku, the caf� owner's teenage daughter, who is still coming to terms with her sister's death as she falls in love for the first time. While Caf� Torunka serves up a perfect cup of coffee, it provides these sundry souls with nourishment far more lasting. Satoshi Yagisawa brilliantly illuminates the periods in our lives where we feel lost-and how we find our way again.
