A FLORIST'S GUIDE TO TWISTING TIME NOVELLA. one hundred years we were buried. one hundred years of you. © t. sai. all rights reserved.

Yōko Ogawa's The Memory Police meets Fredrik Backman's And Everyday the Way Home Gets Longer And Longer with a magical twist...

Since the end of the Three Empires, Sasaki Junri has spent the last hundred years sweeping ghosts in the Otherworld, cooped up in her tiny apothecary with the last of its time-travellers. When a girl sick with the flowering disease shows up at the door one day and dies on her watch, Junri is confronted by the very past she's spent the last century running away from. The tale she's told herself for the last hundred years quickly unravels as she discovers that there is more to the betrayals that had broken her heart so long ago. That there is more-to her family, to their burning anger & to her love for the boy that had robbed her of everything she had cherished.

All it takes is the ghost girl that died under her watch to help her see it.
