What seemed like a short reprieve and a playful passage
through time for three delinquents in an old grocery store, turned out to be
life changing moments for them and the rest of the characters, past and
present. Each of them made decisions that led to an epiphany and in becoming
better human beings. I was left wondering who is the real Mr. Namiya and what
magic is at work. Then again, the logical sequencing of historical events as
backdrop for each character’s story and their placement in the continuum of 30
or more years convinced me to suspend my disbelief. Japanese writers seem to
have mastered time travel as literary device to show the themes of destiny and
interconnectedness.
💜 I read this book
because, there were photos of Kim Seokjin reading/holding it. According to
ARMYs on X, Jin mentioned this book during the 5th Muster. It's time to go back
to June 2019 and enter the Magic Shop!
