A Cat, A Man, And Two Women

`A really great writer . . . Tanizaki has got this warm, ticklishness to his strangeness.` (David Mitchell)`One of the finest pieces of literature concerning cats ever written.`(Choice)Shinako has been ousted from her marriage by her husband Shozo and his younger lover Fukuko. She`s lost everything: her home, status, and respectability. Yet the only thing she longs for is Lily, the elegant tortoiseshell cat she shared with her husband. As Shinako pleads for Lily`s return, Shozo`s reluctance to part with the cat reveals his true affections, and the lengths he`ll go to hold onto the one he loves most.A small masterpiece, A Cat, a Man, and Two Women is a novel about loneliness, love, and companionship of the most unexpected kind. In this story of Japanese society and manners, Tanizaki gives us a perfectly-formed oddball comedy, and a love triangle in which the only real rival is feline.
