From the international bestselling author of The Phone Box at the Edge of the World: a powerful, moving novel of grief, hope, friendship and love based around a real archive on an island in Japan, where people travel to record their heartbeats.

To find what you have lost, you must listen to your heart . . .

On the peaceful Japanese island of Teshima there is a library of heartbeats, a place where the heartbeats of visitors from all around the world are collected. In this small, isolated building, the heartbeats of people who are still alive or have already passed away continue to echo.

Several miles away, in the ancient city of Kamakura, two lonely souls meet: Shuichi, a forty-year-old illustrator, who returns to his home-town to fix up the house of his recently deceased mother, and eight-year-old Kenta, a child who wanders like a shadow around Shuichi's house.

Day by day, the trust between Shuichi and Kenta grows until they discover they share a bond that will tie them together for life. Their journey will lead them to Teshima and to the library of heartbeats . . .

Perfect for playtime and exercise
Color: White
I’ve been using this automatic dog ball launcher since the day I received it, and it has honestly been amazing for both me and my dog. My pup took to it surprisingly fast, and now he plays with it every day without getting bored. I love the adjustable distance settings because I can use it indoors or outdoors depending on the weather. The toy is a very good size and quite practical. In the days I’ve been using it, the product's quality has really stood out, as it has proven to be highly effective. I believe it offers excellent value for the quality, and I recommend it if you are looking to keep your pet entertained.

Do Not Use The Balls That Come With It!
Color: White
This ball machine shows 6 meters or 19 feet. Unlike other ball launchers this is too powerful for indoor use. But I found that if you use different balls through experimentation then there are some that do not go as far.

100 de 100 fabuloso
Color: White, Color: White
The best gift for my dog! I absolutely loved the design and its features—I can adjust the ball-launching distance, and the fact that it’s rechargeable is fantastic. The material of the balls is durable, too. My dog’s name is Oreo; I set up his toy in the yard, and it was so much fun watching him play outdoors. I’m currently teaching him how his new toy works. I highly recommend this for our four-legged babies—5 stars!
