ーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーー

The moment you felt 'life isn't so bad after all' when looking back on your life,
When, to whom, and with what words were you spoken to?
If there was such a call from a radio you were casually listening to...

This book introduces a variety of episodes as if they were submitted to a radio show,
Capturing small miraculous moments that happen in everyday life,
Family, friends, partners, colleagues, convenience store clerks, taxi drivers, SNS posters...
Featuring the 'words' of someone who saved that moment when your heart sank as the main focus,
34 stories in total, a chain of tales where everyone is the protagonist.


[Author's Message]
The short stories serialized in anan have been compiled into one book.
Each story is about the length of one station on the Inokashira Line.

One day, I went outside without anything and suddenly it started pouring rain,
When I was about to give up completely today, soaked to the bone and feeling despair,
I wrote it with the image of gently spreading kindness, like someone suddenly offering a large umbrella.

I'd be happy if you picked it up.
