Bevor die Erinnerung verblasst

The continuation of the TikTok hit and worldwide bestseller "Before the Coffee Gets Cold" with four more stories from the magical café. Once again, readers are placed in the special chair that allows them to travel back in time – this time in a new setting: The third part of the magical café series takes readers back to Japan, but this time to Hokkaido in the north of Japan. The Café Donna, Donna is located in the old Japanese port city of Hakodate. Here, too, a dream of humanity comes true: not only to travel to the past but also to change past situations and make amends for things one regrets.

Four tales about the meaning of life and reconciliation with the past. In the style of "The Café at the End of the World," playwright Toshikazu Kawaguchi also tells four captivating stories in "Before the Memory Fades" about people who have traveled back in time. Their motives were different, yet the lesson learned was the same: Whether it’s reconciliation, forgiveness, or new hope – life is lived forward and understood backward.

The magical continuation of the TikTok phenomenon "Before the Coffee Gets Cold." As in the SPIEGEL bestseller "Before the Coffee Gets Cold," we once again meet four people and their touching fates: the daughter mourning her deceased parents who left her as an orphan; the comedian missing his former partner and their shared dreams; the sister who loses herself in her grief; and the young man who realizes too late his feelings for his childhood friend.
