This fascinating book explores the heart of Japanese daily life through its iconic convenience stores (‘konbini’) which are central to daily life. Three huge chains – 7 Eleven, Family Mart, Lawson – are the beating heart of the nation selling household items, umbrellas, manga and of course food. This is a celebration of their sometimes odd, always delicious offerings, featuring recipes and stories, also delving into the history of this peculiarly Japanese cultural icon.
