TBNT ep19 | Meet Nana, We talk human-feline relationships‪.‬ Two Book Nerds Talking

    • Books

Hiro Arikawa's wildly popular book The Travelling Cat Chronicles has been a hit since it was translated into English. People love cats, the story of a young man taking his kitty on a roadtrip around Japan (even on a ferry!) to find a new home for her has hit a lot of people in the 'feels'. We talk pet's intuitions, human relationships and the poignant/ transient feeling you get from Japanese literature, what they call Mono no aware. Our bookish topic today is on what to consider when you write book reviews and of course further reading if you like cats in your books.
