A charming fable-like novel in translation about half-fox shopkeeper Kogetsu, who learns life and emotional lessons through his interactions with the customers in his shop . . . For fans of Before The Coffee Gets Cold

A charming book of linked stories with a sprinkling of cosy fantasy and a fable-like touch . . .

The Amberglow Candy Store in the Night Alley introduces the reader to half-fox shopkeeper Kogetsu, whose magical wagashi sweets from his shop on Gloaming Lane promise to change his customers' lives for the better.

We follow an array of characters from various walks of life through their encounters with Kogetsu, who himself learns some major life lessons along the way, and reveals his own backstory in the process.
