‘A nonchalant string of anecdotes and wisecracks, told by a fellow who doesn’t have a name, and has never caught a mouse, and isn’t much good for anything except watching human beings in action…’ —
The New Yorker
Written over the course of 1904-1906, Soseki Natsume’s comic masterpiece,
I Am a Cat, satirizes the foolishness of upper-middle-class Japanese society during the Meiji era. With acerbic wit and sardonic perspective, it follows the whimsical adventures of a world-weary stray kitten who comments on the follies and foibles of the people around him.
A classic of Japanese literature,
I Am a Cat is one of Soseki’s best-known novels. Considered by many as the greatest writer in modern Japanese history, Soseki’s
I Am a Cat is a classic novel sure to be enjoyed for years to come.
