The Phone Booth at the Edge of the World by Laura Imai Messina

نویسنده: Laura Imai Messina

The international bestselling novel sold in 21 countries, about grief, mourning, and the joy of survival, inspired by a real phone booth in Japan with its disconnected “wind” phone, a place of pilgrimage and solace since the 2011 tsunami

When Yui loses both her mother and her daughter in the tsunami, she begins to mark the passage of time from that date onward: Everything is relative to March 11, 2011, the day the tsunami tore Japan apart, and when grief took hold of her life. Yui struggles to continue on, alone with her pain.
Then, one day she hears about a man who has an old disused telephone booth in his garden. There, those who have lost loved ones find the strength to speak to them and begin to come to terms with their grief. As news of the phone booth spreads, people travel to it from miles around.
Soon Yui makes her own pilgrimage to the phone booth, too. But once there she cannot bring herself to speak into the receiver. Instead she finds Takeshi, a bereaved husband whose own daughter has stopped talking in the wake of her mother’s death.
Simultaneously heartbreaking and heartwarming, The Phone Booth at the Edge of the World is the signpost pointing to the healing that can come after.

This book was absolutely breathtaking. “The phone book at the edge of the world” is based on a real telephone booth called the ‘wind phone’, where people call this phone (that is disconnected) to reach their loved ones who have passed on. People have pilgrimaged to this location in the city of Otsuchi to find comfort and solace to call their loved ones who have passed away, especially those affected in the tsunami of 2011. While reading this book, I felt all the emotions of pain, loss and finally acceptance and hope. Beautifully written, a story of how we remember those we love close to our hearts.
