Note: In this review I explore the overarching themes of the book as opposed to plot and story to avoid any spoilers.

The Travelling Cat Chronicles is a novel by Japanese author Hiro Arikawa, translated by Philip Gabriel. This book has long been on my list, but when I received it as a Christmas gift from my lovely wife, I didn’t really know what to expect. I mean I read the back of the book jacket in the store and took a picture to put on my Good Reads account. That’s how most books end up on my list.
