Un álbum de fotos. Multitud de recuerdos.
El último vistazo a una vida entera.
> Además, tienen la oportunidad de viajar al pasado como fantasmas para capturar un momento especial. Hecho esto, Hirasaka coloca las imágenes en un proyector para que su invitado pueda contemplar una vez más sus recuerdos.
Así conocemos a Hatsue, una anciana que en 1949 fundó su propia guardería entre las ruinas del Tokio de posguerra; a Waniguchi, un hombre que trabajaba en un taller tapadera de la yakuza; o a Mitsuru, una joven que sufrió un trágico final y que hallará en el estudio de Hirasaka la clave para cambiar el rumbo de su existencia.
Sin embargo, mientras lleva a cabo su trabajo, Hirasaka se ve asediado para una pregunta cuya respuesta se le escapa: dónde están sus propios recuerdos?
ENGLISH DESCRIPTION
From acclaimed Japanese author Sanaka Hiigari comes a heartwarming, life-affirming novel about a magical photo studio, where people go after they die to view key moments from their life--and relive one precious memory before they pass into the afterlife.
> This is the story of the peculiar and magical photo studio owned by Mr. Hirasaki, a collector of antique cameras. In the dimly lit interior, a paper background is pulled down in front of a wall, and in front of it stands a single, luxurious chair with an armrest on one side. On a stand is a large bellows camera. On the left is the main studio; photos can also be taken in the courtyard.
Beyond its straightforward interior, however, is a secret. The studio is, in fact, the door to the afterlife, the place between life and death where those who have departed have a chance--one last time--to see their entire life flash before their eyes via Mr. Hirasaki's "spinning lantern of memories."
We meet Hatsue, a ninety-two-year-old woman who worked as a nursery teacher, the rowdy Waniguchi, a yakuza overseer in his life who is also capable of great compassion, and finally Mitsuru, a young girl who has died tragically young at the hands of abusive parents.
Sorting through the many photos of their lives, Mr. Hirasaki also offers guests one guests a second gift: a chance to travel back in time to take a photo of one particular moment in their lives that they wish to cherish in a special way.
Full of charm and whimsy, The Lantern of Lost Memories will sweep you away to a world of nostalgia, laughter, and love.
