Books by Hiromi Kawakami

The Nakano Thrift Shop
This Japanese novel reminds us that joy can be found in even the most ordinary of lives. With gentle humour the story draws us into the lives of four very different main characters who devote themselves to the daily running of the Nakano Thrift Shop. You will enjoy the characters in this wise and subtle tale of loneliness and the search for self-identity. It is a little gem.
