An international phenomenon that has sold over two million copies! This is a heartwarming, funny, and profound book about the meaning of life. This timeless story by Genki Kawamura is a touching narrative about loss, reconciliation, the difficult choices a person makes, and their attempts to understand what is truly important in life. A young postman's days are numbered. Disconnected from his family and living alone with his cat, Cabbage, he was not prepared for the terrifying diagnosis: he only has a few months left to live. But before he can get his affairs in order, the devil appears with a very unusual offer. The dark force promises to extend the dying man's life, but in exchange, for every extra day, one thing in the world will disappear without a trace... And so begins a very strange week that brings the young postman and his beloved cat to the brink of existence.
With each vanishing object, the postman reflects on the life he has lived, his joys and regrets, as well as the people he has loved and lost.
