Book synopsis
Renowned character actor Kafuku finds his life taking an unexpected turn after a minor accident forces him to hire a personal driver. He employs Misaki Watari, a brusque and taciturn young woman whose mechanical precision behind the wheel provides a quiet sanctuary for his daily rehearsals. As they navigate the streets of Tokyo together, the silence of the car becomes a space for Kafuku to confront the lingering mysteries of his late wife’s infidelity and the emotional distance of his own life. This collection explores the intricate, often solitary internal worlds of men who exist on the periphery of the women they have loved and lost.
