About the event
Join us for the next meeting of the Die Laughing Book Club, where we’ll dive into The Man Who Died Seven Times by Yasuhiko Nishizawa—a subversively cozy Japanese murder mystery that blends wit, intrigue, and an ingenious time-loop twist.
When Hisataro, a young member of the wealthy Fuchigami family, discovers he can relive the same day nine times, his strange ability becomes his only hope of solving his grandfather’s mysterious death. With an inheritance at stake, suspects abound, and each replay reveals new secrets, lies, and motives.
Clever, funny, and utterly original, this book is a delight for fans of Agatha Christie’s classic plotting, Richard Osman’s gentle humor, and Stuart Turton’s inventive storytelling. Expect plenty of twists—and just the right amount of absurdity—as we discuss this inventive new take on the cozy mystery.
