Hiroshi Nakahara is a forty-something salaryman returning to Tokyo from an intense business trip.

Arriving in Kurayoshi, drawn through his distant neighborhood to the cemetery and his mother's grave, he is transported back into his 14 year-old life and body while retaining all his adult character and experiences. That day his father disappeared without explanation, the death of his mother, will he change his past or be forever condemned to relive each painful moment? And will he ever see his wife and daughters again? Softcover, 200 pages, B&W. Cover price $23.00.
