Chronicles of the Wandering Cat

"Chronicles of the Wandering Cat" is a bestseller by Hiro Arikawa that has captured the hearts of millions of readers around the world. It is an amazing, touching story of friendship between a cat with the "happy" name Nana, which... in Japanese means "seven", and his owner Satoru. Along with that, it is a travel novel in which the heroes move both in space and time: Nana discovers endless marine expanses and the beauty of Mount Fuji, while Satoru seems to relive the events of his childhood and youth. At first glance, the cat Nana, acting as the narrator, is a realist and a pragmatist to the core, with his strictly feline philosophy of life. However, he manages to penetrate so deeply into his owner's inner world that sometimes he understands Satoru better than Satoru understands himself. What are they to each other? Why does Satoru repeatedly set off on a journey, taking his beloved cat with him?..
