The Miracles of the Namiya General Store

Delinquents discover timeless wisdom in a magical store.

If you're someone who finds joy in serendipitous tales that weave the past and present together, "The Miracles of the Namiya General Store" could resonate with you. It's a narrative that transforms the ordinary into the extraordinary, and it uses a blend of gentle fantasy and reality to explore the human condition and the impact of small acts of kindness. It's like a feel-good journey that promises more than just a story—it offers perspective.

Description

When three delinquents hole up in an abandoned general store after their most recent robbery, to their great surprise, a letter drops through the mail slot in the store's shutter. This seemingly simple request for advice sets the trio on a journey of discovery as, over the course of a single night, they step into the role of the kindhearted former shopkeeper who devoted his waning years to offering thoughtful counsel to his correspondents. Through the lens of time, they share insight with those seeking guidance, and by morning, none of their lives will ever be the same. By acclaimed author Keigo Higashino, The Miracles of the Namiya General Store is a work that has touched the hearts of readers around the world.
