Jakucho Setouchi, who is on the verge of 100 years old and writes daily, and Tadanori Yokoo, who is in his mid-80s and still going strong. This book is a compilation of the correspondence between these two people, who met about half a century ago, serialized in Asahi Weekly. The two "old best friends" look back on their exchanges since the Showa period and share their insights on the state of the world, their unrestrained and humorous lives, and the joys and sorrows of longevity in the form of letters to each other.
