Cat’s Meow Best Wholesale Cheap Pice

A little artist-made picture book from Japan.

This book is told in the voice of a cat: ‘Hey, I’ve woken up. I’m not sleepy at all. Play with me. If you don’t…I’ll take all your favorite things and rip them to shreds… I’ll help myself to the cat food,’ etc. It ends with the poignant words, ‘Listen to my heartbeat. I know you can hear it. My time will come much sooner than yours. So please, wake up.’”

These copies come with an English translation by Ottilia Tanaka which was approved by the author. The translation is printed on a little folded piece of paper along with a description of the technique used to make the artwork.
