Description:
A story that lingers in the heart more than words ever could...... This novel is a kind I have never written before. And it is a kind I desperately wanted to write. This is a love story. Though I think it's a terribly old-fashioned term, I can't think of a better word for it. Intense, quiet, sorrowful—a one-hundred-percent love story.――Haruki Murakami
