The sudden death of the attractive Mitsuko Tsuji shocks everyone, including the customers of her bookstore, Kitô. When visitors arrive to pay their last respects, Tarô, Mitsuko's deaf-mute son, is troubled by certain details of his family history. But this becomes less important when a young woman comes to offer her condolences, awakening in him a deep uneasiness, something like a budding love, something like a precious memory.
