The Convenience Store by the Sea by Sonoko Machida Welcome to Tenderness — a little convenience store where everyone has a story.
Set in the charming seaside town of Mojiko, Kitakyushu, The Convenience Store by the Sea by award-winning Japanese novelist Sonoko Machida is a heartwarming and uplifting novel about human connection, everyday kindness, and the unexpected comfort found in ordinary places.
The Story
Tenderness is a 24/7 convenience store that looks like any other at first glance. But behind its bright lights and neatly stocked shelves is a community of memorable customers and employees who each bring their own quirks, worries, and stories.
There’s the handsome manager with a surprisingly devoted fan club, eccentric customers who keep coming back, and friendly employees who remember everyone by name. From steaming coffee and sweet parfaits to egg sandwiches, ramen, fried chicken, and soba, Tenderness seems to have exactly what people need.
As different lives intersect within the store, small moments of kindness begin to create meaningful connections. Sometimes, what you need most isn't something you can buy from a shelf — it's simply a place where you feel welcome.
