I Am a Cat |
Written in Japan between 1905 and 1906, the author used the feline 'voice' of a nameless kitten who was adopted into a household of humans to make his own critical observations of behaviour during the social upheaval of the Meiji era. The book originally began as a serial in a literary magazine. The more popular this cat became, the thicker the finished book became. An amusing read. (Sharron Calkins - bwl 91 Winter 2019) |
