by Jirou Taniguchi, Hiromi Kawakami

The story of "Sensei no Kaban" is about Tsukiko, a woman of thirty, that meets by chance his now sixties ex-professor of Japanese in a bar. The meeting will be the first of many in wich the two main characters discover that they love despite the age difference. A love story told with an original and effective narrative structure which divides the plot into seventeen short stories, seventeen romantic moments united by the same thread: Poetry and the ineffability of small simple things that make you happy.
