Language: SPANISH

Publisher: Penguin Random House / De Bolsillo (2022)

A house and a garden touched with the grace of a beauty from another time. A couple seeking refuge in their new lives away from the turmoil of Tokyo . An enigmatic cat who unexpectedly enters their kitchen and decides to adopt them as his owners, becoming the center of a subtle intrigue.

"Hiraide's writing is lyrical and captivating". Nina Sankovitch, The Huffington Post

"The language and descriptions are careful and elegant. Hiraide's novel talks, of course, about a cat, but also, and above all, about space and property. An unusually beautiful, intimate, detailed and vivid portrait of a place that is both private and open."
