The Travelling Cat Chronicles

 Fiction by Hiro Arikawa


This was a different sort of story: it was written in Japanese and from the point of view of a cat. (Obviously I read the version that had been translated into English.)

The cat is called Nana. He was a stray but got adopted by a man called Satoru. After several years together, Nana and Satoru go on a journey around Japan together to visit old friends. Satoru says he is looking for a new home for the cat, but it appears to the reader that he may have another goal.

This was a sweet story and a quick read.
