Rental Person Who Does Nothing by Shoji Morimoto

Shoji becomes a “rental person who does nothing,” emphasizing the value of presence in our lives. My favorite parts are when clients ask him to think of them for a moment, highlighting their need for connection. I also love the scene where a client requests a wave goodbye as they leave the station, showcasing the impact of small gestures. The peculiar requests he receives and the deep secrets shared add depth, making this memoir a poignant reminder of the importance of listening and being present.
