    "At first, If Cats Disappeared from the World feels as light and puzzling as a fairy tale, but then, steadily, chapter by chapter--using nothing more than conversation, memory, and a winning narrator's searching, sensitive thought experiments--it raises its cosmic stakes higher than any thriller. Like a padding cat or the shadow of death, Genki Kawamura's book snuck up on me; the next thing I knew, I was crying." -- Robin Sloan, New York Times bestselling author of Mr. Penumbra's 24-Hour Bookstore and Sourdough "If you're a fan of The Guest Cat (or even just cats generally), you'll love this." -- The Sunday Times (UK) "A funny and heartwarming meditation on the meaning of life." -- Book Riot "A warm, quirky novel on life, love, family estrangement and what remains when we are gone with a surprising emotional charge." -- The Observer (UK) "A poignant, affecting story about facing up to one's mortality, taking responsibility for one's choices and deciding what truly holds value." -- The Herald (UK) " The story will have readers re-evaluating the possessions they have and what they might gain from losing them...and are sure to come away from the story seeing the world and the people around them a little differently." -- International Examiner

    Synopsis
    New York Times Bestseller The international phenomenon that has sold more than two million copies, If Cats Disappeared from the World --now a Japanese film--is a heartwarming, funny, and profound meditation on the meaning of life. This timeless tale from Genki Kawamura (producer of the Japanese blockbuster animated movie Your Name ) is a moving story of loss and reconciliation, and of one man's journey to discover what really matters most in life. The young postman's days are numbered. Estranged from his family and living alone with only his cat, Cabbage, to keep him company, he was unprepared for the doctor's diagnosis that he has only months to live. But before he can tackle his bucket list, the devil shows up to make him an offer: In exchange for making one thing in the world disappear, the postman will be granted one extra day of life. And so begins a very strange week that brings the young postman and his beloved cat to the brink of existence. With each object that disappears, the postman reflects on the life he's lived, his joys and regrets, and the people he's loved and lost.
