Product Information
THE SENSATIONAL MILLION-COPY BESTSELLER- a tender, feelgood story of a journey around Japan with a streetcat. Translated by Philip Gabriel, a translator of Murakami. THE PERFECT CURL-UP READ FOR CAT LOVERS 'Prepare to have your heartstrings tugged by this quirky tale' Sunday Mirror 'A book about kindness and love, and how the smallest things can provide happiness' Stylist ___ It's not the journey that counts, but who's at your side. Nana is on a road trip, but he is not sure where he is going. All that matters is that he can sit beside his beloved owner Satoru in the front seat of his silver van. Satoru is keen to visit three old friends from his youth, though Nana doesn't know why and Satoru won't say. Set against the backdrop of Japan's changing seasons and narrated with a rare gentleness and humour, Nana's story explores the wonder and thrill of life's unexpected detours. It is about the value of friendship and solitude, and knowing when to give and when to take. At the heart of this book is a powerful message about the importance of kindness. It shows, above all, how acts of love, both great and small, can transform our lives. ___ What readers are saying- 'Delightful, insightful, full of warmth with plenty of humour.' 'Uplifting and heart wrenching in equal measure.' 'It had me in floods of tears but filled me with hope too.'Product Identifiers

Must read for cat lovers and cat haters, so the latter become cat lovers. Deeply moving
Cats can think, and in this book cats can talk. They seem to have a great understanding of our character, however, they are convinced we do not understand theirs. Contrary to what we think. The story is compelling, you travel trough the eyes of the cat, the man and his friends. You see Japan, learn some habits, and at the end you cry. Like you've lost some friends... A must read!Verified purchase: YesCondition: New
