This is the picture of the book. The cover illustration is a cute drawing of a barber shop seen from the outside. There is snow on the ground and on the roof. A man, presumably barber Mukouda, is looking at us through the window of his shop.

向田理髪店 (Mukouda rihatsuten) (Barber Mukouda) by Hideo Okuda (奥田英朗).
This is a collection of stories set in a small coal mine town in Hokkaido. Most young people have left the town, the population is ageing, public service lacking… but those who stayed are always there for each other!
These heartwarming stories made me feel close to the characters and part of their community.
