A bestseller in Japan with over a million copies sold, this novel is set in a small coastal town just outside Tokyo, where an international piano competition is about to take place. The competitors are getting ready; Aya was a child prodigy but when her mother died, she gave up performing - now, she’s making her comeback. Her childhood friend, Masaru, is also competing and the pair find themselves reunited after several years.
Akashu, the oldest of the group, works in a music shop and this competition is his last chance. And then, of course, there’s Jin, the pianist without a piano and the son of a bee-keeper, with no formal training but an understanding of music like no other. Each of them will find themselves pushed to the brink as they make their way through the competition’s rounds in this mesmerising story about music, connection as well as love and rivalry.
