In May, in honor of Asian American, Native Hawaiian, and Pacific Islander Heritage Month, we'll be reading Before the Coffee Gets Cold by Toshikazu Kawaguchi. Japanese playwright Kawaguchi's evocative English-language debut is set in a tiny Tokyo café where time travel is possible. In four connected tales, lovers and family members take turns sitting in the chair that allows a person to travel back in time for only as long as it takes a single cup of coffee to cool.
The eBook is available on Overdrive. The eAudiobook is available on Hoopla. Physical copies are also available for hold.
