Kouhei Araki has spent years hunched over index cards at Genbu Publishing, and now he wants out. His wife is sick, his back hurts, and the dictionary he has been building for over a decade, The Great Passage, is still nowhere near finished. He cannot leave until he finds someone to take his chair. The problem: nobody wants the job. The dictionary department is nicknamed the bug that eats money, and the work is slow, thankless, and endless. Then Araki meets Mitsuya Majime, a salesman who cannot read a room to save his life. Majime blurts out the wrong thing at the wrong time, avoids eye contact, and would rather spend a whole evening tracing the roots of a single word. Araki watches him for about five minutes and decides this awkward oddball is exactly the person he needs. Majime takes the transfer, mostly because he cannot say no, and immediately wonders if he has just ruined his life. The stacks of paper grow taller. The deadlines stretch into decades. His new coworkers are strange in their own ways, and he still has no idea how to talk to any of them. But somewhere in that ocean of words, something is starting to click. Can a man who cannot hold a conversation actually build the book that connects everyone?
