Beschreibung
A couple in their thirties live in a small rented cottage in a quiet part of Tokyo, working from home as freelance writers. They no longer have much to say to each other. One day, a beautiful cat invites herself into their small kitchen. She leaves, but returns the next day, and then again and again. New, small joys accompany the cat; the days gain light and colour. Life suddenly seems more promising for the husband and wife as they walk together, talk and share stories about the cat and her little ways, and play in the nearby garden. But then something happens that changes everything once more. The Guest Cat is a moving and beautiful novel about the nature of life and what it feels like to live it. Written by Japanese poet and novelist Takashi Hiraide, it won the Kiyama Shohei Literary Award in Japan and became a bestseller in France and America. The book is in English.
