Perfect reading for all fans of Days at the Morisaki Bookshop and Before the Coffee Gets Cold, this heartwarming Japanese bestseller centres on a charming convenience store called Tenderness.

Tenderness is a small 24/7 convenience store in the seaside town of Mojiko — ordinary at first glance, yet full of charm. Its handsome manager, quirky regulars and always‑glowing lights create a place where everyone feels seen, welcomed and fed, whether with hot coffee, parfaits or late‑night comfort.

As customers drift in and out, the store becomes a quiet haven of connection and community. Sonoko Machida’s The Convenience Store by the Sea is a gentle, uplifting novel about how everyday spaces — and the people within them — can offer unexpected solace and belonging.

Product description

Perfect reading for all fans of Days at the Morisaki Bookshop and Before the Coffee Gets Cold, this heartwarming Japanese bestseller centres on a charming convenience store called Tenderness.

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.

At first glance, it's a store like any other.

Sure, it's a bit odd that the handsome manager has his own fan club. And perhaps the customers are somewhat eccentric. But there's a warmth about Tenderness that draws you in.

The bright lights are always on. The employees know you by name. And the shelves are stacked with delicious treats, from strong hot coffee to sweet parfaits, egg sandos to ramen, crispy fried chicken to refreshing soba.

After a while, you get the feeling that whatever you need might just be waiting for you here...

Celebrating the joy of connection and community, The Convenience Store by the Sea is the heartwarming international bestseller from award-winning Japanese novelist Sonoko Machida. Translated by Bruno Navasky.
