Než pravda vyjde najevo

11,16 €

Toshikazu Kawaguchi's Než pravda vyjde najevo is the second Funiculi funicula book. A mysterious Tokyo café permits brief returns to the past under strict rules. This time, four men take the chair to meet someone close again and say what was left unspoken.

Time travel cannot change the present, but it can alter how a person understands life. Four separate stories bring encounters with a long-dead friend, a son with his mother, a man with the woman he loves, and an older police officer with his wife.

Kindly meant lies, unspoken words, and a need for closure connect different human experiences. The unchangeable present shifts the meaning of time travel toward conversation and understanding. Each meeting offers another way of relating to the past.
