Dinner at the Night Library - Hika Harada

Descriere Dinner at the Night Library - Hika Harada

A whimsical, charming novel about a mysterious library in Tokyo that opens after dark, following the employees who bond each night over special meals inspired by the books on the shelves \n \nThe unusual Night Library on the outskirts of Tokyo is open from seven o'clock to midnight. Unlike most libraries, it only stores books by deceased authors, and they can't be checked out. Instead, they're put on public display to be revered and celebrated by the library's visitors, making it akin to a book museum. \n \nOtoha Higuchi, the newest employee, has been recruited to work at the library by the mysterious anonymous owner. There, Otoha meets the other staff, comprised of former librarians and booksellers who, like her, have been damaged in some way by the rocky publishing industry - yet they've never let go of their dedication to books. \n \nNight after night, Otoha bonds with her colleagues over meals in the library café, each of which are inspired by the literature on the shelves. When she encounters an unexpected incident at the Night Library, it forces her and the library staff to rethink their entire relationship with work and what they really want in life.
