I "Before the Coffee Gets Cold" af Toshikazu Kawaguchi får de besøgende på en lille café i Tokyo et tilbud ud over det sædvanlige. Caféen giver gæsterne mulighed for at rejse tilbage i tiden dog med nogle meget specifikke betingelser. De skal forblive i caféen siddende på en bestemt plads og vigtigst af alt; de skal vende tilbage, før deres kaffe bliver kold. Toshikazu Kawaguchis bog "Before the Coffee Gets Cold" tager læseren med på fire forskellige tidsrejser med fire cafégæster. En er blevet forladt af sin mand og vil gennemføre en større konfrontation. En anden rejser tilbage for at modtage et brev fra sin mand, der har mistet sin hukommelsen til Alzheimers. Den tredje gæst vil se sin søster for sidste gang, og den fjerde fik aldrig lært sin datter at kende, men ser en mulighed for komme til det nu. Med de fire tidsrejser åbner Toshikazu Kawaguchi i "Before the Coffee Gets Cold" op for nogle af de spørgsmål, som vi nok alle har stilt os selv og hinanden: "Hvilket tidspunkt i dit liv ville du rejse til, hvis du kunne rejse tilbage i tiden, og hvad ville du forandre?". En rørende og eftertænksom læseoplevelse.
