“The latest instalment in the enchanting Before the Coffee Gets Cold series doesn’t disappoint. The four time travelers in this novel can’t change the present, but use their chance to visit departed loved ones to deepen relationships, undo past misunderstandings and go forward in their lives without regret. Kevin Chen’s narration brings the cafe workers and their customers to marvelous life. ”

The fourth novel in the internationally bestselling Before the Coffee Gets Cold Series
The regulars at the magical Café Funiculi Funicula are well acquainted with its famous legend and extraordinary time-travel offer. Many patrons have reunited with old flames, made amends with estranged family and visited loved ones. But the journey is not without risks, and there are rules to follow.
In the tradition of Toshikazu Kawaguchi’s sensational Before the Coffee Gets Cold Series, readers will once again be introduced to a new set of visitors: the husband with something important left to say; the woman who couldn't bid her dog farewell; the woman who couldn't answer a proposal; and the daughter who drove her father away.
Featuring signature heartwarming characters and wistful storytelling, in the beautifully haunting Before We Say Goodbye, Kawaguchi asks: Who would you visit if you could travel through time?
