A review by pzdrnk
Days at the Morisaki Bookshop by Satoshi Yagisawa

3.75

A simple and delicate story; an unexpectedly beautiful and gracefully written book; a great summer pastime for those who love books, unexpected encounters and for those who need a break from everyday routine to listen to their souls :)

I liked the cinematic speed of the narration, the author's ability to delineate the characters' types with just a few strokes of the pen, and to describe the different environments without too many frills but, on the contrary, with an all-Japanese minimalist simplicity.
