Mornings With My Cat Mii *BRUISED BOOK*

Each of our "bruised books" are slightly scarred from living their lives - whether during transportation or accidentally dropped - but it doesn't mean that the stories within their pages are any less valuable.

This copy of Mornings Wit My Cat Mii is new but the top right corner is a bit bruised.

On a cool summer evening in 1977, Mayumi Inaba hears a forlorn cry. She follows the sound to the banks of Tokyo’s Tamagawa River and finds a newborn kitten dangling from a fence, abandoned. Overcome by tender affection, she takes the cat back to the small apartment she shares with her husband and christens her Mii: so begins an unshakeable bond.

Over the next twenty years, we follow Inaba, a poet and novelist by moonlight, as she pursues quiet solitude and a room of her own. Through it all, Mii, a fiercely independent creature in her own right, is her confidante and muse.

This beloved Japanese modern classic is not just a love letter to companionship: it’s a poignant, searching meditation on the forces that enable us to connect, to create and to build a life.
