A tender, whimsical tale of love, loss, and the quiet miracles of everyday life. Perfect for fans of cosy Japanese fiction.
When an unexpected diagnosis turns his world upside down, a lonely man, with only Cabbage the cat for company, is faced with an impossible choice. The Devil appears with an offer: if he makes one thing in the world disappear, he can have an extra day of life.
As the days tick by, and with Cabbage by his side, he begins a journey that might just lead him back to the people he thought he’d lost. Before it’s too late . . .
Genki Kawamura’s If Cats Disappeared from the World is a life-affirming meditation on what we leave behind – and what we hold onto until the very end.
'If you're a fan of The Guest Cat (or even just cats generally), you'll love this.' – Sunday Times

A Little bit boring at times, but overall a very cozy, funny and sad story. Definitely worth a listen on a rainy day!

Ledsam, underfundig och mysig. En lågmäld bok, som får dig att fundera. Tyvärr har jag lite svårt för den där naiva japanska berättar tonen, men undrar inte om det kanske har mer med översättning att göra än något annat. Klart läsvärd!
