  • Overview

    Una nueva celebración literaria del mundo felino por la premiada autora de Crónicas del gato viajero, vendido en doce países y proclamado como «el mejor libro del otoño» por The Times.

    Con el cambio de estaciones en Japón como telón de fondo, siete gatos y sus humanos protagonizan este delicioso libro de relatos: el pequeño Spin enseña al hombre que lo ha rescatado a lidiar con su reciente paternidad y hacerse cargo de su pequeña familia; una colonia de gatos salvajes en una isla japonesa muestra a un niño que no debe interponerse en el camino de la naturaleza; el anciano Kota trama un plan para convertirse en espíritu antes de irse al otro mundo y que así su humano no le eche nunca de menos; una familia queda perpleja ante la devoción de su nueva mascota por el distante y frío padre de familia...
     
    La autora del clásico de la literatura gatuna que conquistó a más de un millón de lectores con Crónicas del gato viajero regresa con un libro rebosante de empatía y de amor: una exquisita celebración del ciclo imparable de la vida, que siempre se hace más llevadero con la presencia de un animal amado a nuestro lado.

    ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

    In the much-anticipated follow-up to the bestselling and beloved The Travelling Cat Chronicles, seven cats weave their way through their owners’ lives, climbing, comforting, nestling, and sometimes just tripping everyone up in this uplifting collection of tales by international bestselling author Hiro Arikawa.
     
    Against the backdrop of changing seasons in Japan, we meet Spin, a kitten rescued from the recycling bin, whose playful nature and simple needs teach an anxious father how to parent his own human baby; a colony of wild cats on a popular holiday island show a young boy not to stand in nature’s way; a family is perplexed by their cat’s undying devotion to their charismatic but uncaring father; a woman curses how her cat will not stop visiting her at night; and an elderly cat hatches a plan to pass into the next world as a spirit so that he and his owner may be in each other’s lives forever.
     
    Bursting with love and warmth, The Goodbye Cat exquisitely explores the cycle of life, from birth to death—as each of the seven stories explores how, in different ways, the steadiness and devotion of a well-loved cat never lets us down. A huge bestseller in Japan, this magical book is a joyous celebration of the wondrousness of cats and why we choose to share our lives with them.
