Imagine a small café where you can travel back in time. This is a moving story of four visitors to the café, hoping to take advantage of the magic for many different reasons. However, you must follow the rules. To sit in one particular seat. To stay in the cafe. You also have to return to the present before the coffee gets cold. I really loved this book, and I can’t wait to read the sequel!

Writing across several different genres, from historical fiction to science fiction, he captures the reader with fascinating settings and intriguing storylines. His work is critically acclaimed, winning the Nobel prize for literature in 2017.
