The Convenience Store By The Sea

Sonoko Machida

Ā 

The quirky, charming Japanese sensation with over half a million copies sold worldwide.

"AnĀ unexpected treasure." —Laurie Gilmore, bestselling author of The Pumpkin Spice Cafe

"The uplifting, soul-cleansing experience we all need." —Kirsten Miller, author of Lula Dean’s Little Library of Banned Books

Welcome to Tenderness!

A quaint seaside town in Kitakyushu, Mojiko is full of hidden delights. And one unexpected treasure is the 24/7 convenience store, Tenderness.

Sure, it's a bit odd that the incredibly handsome manager has his own fan club. And perhaps the customers are somewhat eccentric, if not entertaining. But there's a warmth about the store that draws you in.

The truth is, Tenderness is different. Operating only in Kyushu, Tenderness stands firm and proud by its motto ā€œCaring for People, Caring for Youā€, no matter the cause. And for Mitsuhiko, dishing out delicious food is simply the appetizer to his unsolicited but hearty wisdom on the town’s shenanigans.

An international bestseller with over half a million copies sold between Japan and South Korea, The Convenience Store by The Sea tells the delightfully quirky and heartfelt stories of the store’s customers and employees, offering us all a unique recipe for a good, fulfilling life.
