The Miracles of the Namiya General Store

The Miracles of the Namiya General Store

This general store can help modern people rediscover what they’ve lost inside.
There’s a general store on a quiet street. If you write down your troubles and drop them into the mail slot of its roll-up door, you’ll find an answer in the milk box behind the store the next day.
Shizuko, a young woman, is torn between love and dreams as her boyfriend battles a terminal illness. Kouro leaves home to pursue his musical dreams, only to find himself unable to make progress in reality. Teenager Kosuke faces a major family upheaval, struggling with the confusion of family ties and his future…
They write their dilemmas in letters and drop them into the general store, and then, strange things begin to happen.
How will an accidental encounter in life lead to vastly different lives?
Looking back at the writing process now, I find myself constantly pondering one question: When standing at a crossroads in life, what should a person truly do? I hope readers will murmur to themselves as they close the book: I’ve never read a novel like this. – Keigo Higashino
