À propos de cet audio

*COMING IN FEBRUARY 2026! The second book the series: The Calico Cat at the Chibineko Kitchen*

“Wonderful . . . A cozy, emotional gem . . . Each chapter is a quiet, healing moment, filled with food, memory and the comfort of cats.” —The Seattle Times

Your table awaits at the Chibineko Kitchen, where a soul-nourishing meal in the company of the resident kitten will transport you back in time to reunite with departed loved ones—for fans of Before the Coffee Gets Cold, The Midnight Library, and Studio Ghibli films like Spirited Away.


In a remote seaside town outside of Tokyo, Kotoko makes her way along a seashell path, lured by whispers of an enigmatic restaurant whose kagezen, or traditional meals offered in remembrance of loved ones, promise a reunion with the departed. When a gust of wind lifts off her hat, she sees running after it a young man who looks like her recently deceased brother. But it’s not her brother; it’s Kai, the restaurant’s young chef, who returns her hat and brings her to the tiny establishment, where he introduces her to Chibi, the resident kitten, and serves her steaming bowls of simmered fish, rice, and miso soup—the exact meal her brother used to cook for her. As she takes her first delicious bite, the gulls outside fall silent, the air grows hazy, and Kotoko begins a magical journey of last chances and new beginnings.

“Heartwarming . . . If you enjoyed Before the Coffee Gets Cold, you might enjoy this magical tale set in a seaside town outside of Tokyo.” —Savvy Tokyo

The charming characters have moving narratives. The food, which is sensorially described, has a starring role as well, with regional and cultural exposition and recipes at the end of each chapter. . . . Soul-nourishing.” —Shelf Awareness

“Profoundly relatable . . . A heartfelt addition to contemporary Japanese literature. It offers readers not just a story but an emotional journey that resonates deeply with anyone who has experienced loss. . . .
