Sometimes you want harrowing memoir. Sometimes you want gripping thrills. Sometimes you want experimentation. And sometimes you want a heartwarming story about an older man and his homely cat. A sensation in Japan, this lovely book is one for the pet owners out there. Itâs about how we can find what weâre looking for in our animal companions, and what they might even find in you. Umi Sakuraiâs art has a dreamy quality which makes titular cat Fukumaruâs cuteness nigh-on unbearable. But in the end it works, because itâs just so damn lovely that youâd have to have a heart of stone to be cynical in the face of it.
