A moving novel by Laura Imai Messina that explores grief and the joy of living after the devastating tsunami in Japan in 2011. Yui, the protagonist, seeks solace in an abandoned phone booth where people connect with their deceased loved ones. Through her pilgrimage, she meets Takeshi, a doctor whose daughter has stopped talking after the loss of her mother, and together they find a path towards healing and hope. Messina's delicate prose and her privileged vision of Japan make this novel an essential read and a balm for the soul.
