"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 from 1904 through 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 most significant writer in modern Japanese history, Soseki''s I Am a Cat is a classic novel sure to be enjoyed for years to come.
