Translated by Antony Shugaar.
Illustrated by
Nicolas Hubesch.
In six brief chapters, Bruno the cat recounts the goings-on in his life. Some chapters are chock-full of the surreal and extraordinary, while others are more quotidian, all presented in a straightforward, conversational tone and through playful, observant art. Recurring characters and visual details--drawn in a slightly unsteady, inviting black line--produce a rewarding interconnectivity between chapters.
