Reviews
Advance Praise "This book is more than a tribute to a companion . It's proof of a world normally concealed from humans , exposed here through the eyes of an artist . Mornings Without Mii captures the otherworldly luck and requisite doom of finding and being found by a cat. I could barely get through it--a compliment." --Sloane Crosley, author of Grief Is for People, "[A] moving memoir . . . [of] the daily joys and intimacies of having a pet . . . Inaba''s portrait of the human-feline relationship is reverential, an expression of devotion." -- The New Yorker "A heartbreaking story . . . Exquisite." --Charlotte Shane, Bookforum "A meditative memoir about love, grief, writing, and cats. What a lovely book to curl up with this spring." --McKayla Coyle, Literary Hub "I was delighted to come across [ Mornings Without Mii ] . . . Inaba defies expectation and pushes the limits of what we expect a memoir to do for a reader . . . Mii is a representation of resilience, of taking leaps into the dark towards desires." --Julia Shiota, Cleveland Review of Books "[A] resonant slice of Japanese literature . . . A striking evocation of the way we meld our lives and hearts with a beloved creature." -- Kirkus Reviews (starred review) "Cat lovers, prepare to weep." --Siobhan Murphy, The Times "Supernaturally insightful and aglow with incidental joys, Mornings Without Mii uncovers something eternal about companionship, about being alone, and about cats." --Rivka Galchen, author of Everyone Knows Your Mother Is a Witch "[A] soulful account . . . [ Mornings Without Mii ] rapturously recounts Inaba and Mii''s evening walks, their afternoons spent admiring the Tokyo skyline, and, as Mii started to fall ill, their meditative trips to the countryside . . . A must-read for pet lovers with sturdy hearts." -- Publishers Weekly (starred review) "Marvelous, a cat classic." --Catherine Lacey, author of Biography of X , on Substack "A woman writer meditates on solitude, art, and independence alongside her beloved cat in Inaba''s modern classic." --Sophia M. Stewart, The Millions "Heartstring-tugging, haunting . . . Lovingly chronicle[d] . . . Grateful readers will recognize Inaba''s visceral connection and find deep comfort here." --Terry Hong, Shelf Awareness (starred review) "Sure to tug the heartstrings of cat lovers everywhere . . . Profoundly intimate . . . [An] exquisite story, one that is sure to stay with its readers long after they dry their eyes." --Christine Runyon, BookBrowse "This book is more than a tribute to a companion. It''s proof of a world normally concealed from humans, exposed here through the eyes of an artist. Mornings Without Mii captures the otherworldly luck and requisite doom of finding and being found by a cat. I could barely get through it--a compliment." --Sloane Crosley, author of Grief Is for People "[A] bracing and beautiful memoir . . . suffused with honesty and emotional heft." --Linda M. Castellitto, BookPage (starred review) "Unforgettable . . . A profound account of caring for a loved one across their entire life and the privilege such care entails . . . Sweet and timeless." --Annie Bostrom, Booklist "An homage to love and loss in a relationship between a human and an animal." --Ellen Prentiss Campbell, Washington Independent Review of Books "[A] modern classic . . . Ending on [a] note of redemption, the story is full of positive energy. Whatever is happening in the wider world, there is always love, even if it''s not the conventional kind." --Jane Wallace, Asian Review of Books "[ Mornings Without Mii ] evokes genuine pathos . . . Not only a story of the joy of animal companionship, but also its grief." --Thu-Huong Ha, The Japan Times "I have never read a book quite like this. The profoundly real, specific, moving, and beautifully written story of a woman who becomes a writer and falls in love with a kitten, and then lives with these things--both the writing, and the cat--for the next twenty years. I learned new things about myself and my cat, and also about (some) people and cats in 1970s-1990s Tokyo." --Elif Batuman, author of Either/Or
Synopsis
INDIE BESTSELLER A Must-Read: The New Yorker - Literary Hub - The Millions - Kirkus Reviews - Shelf Awareness - BookPage - BookBub "A great love story." --Sigrid Nunez, The New Yorker "I have never read a book quite like this. Profoundly real, specific, moving, and beautifully written." Elif Batuman, author of Either/Or Mornings Without Mii is a beloved Japanese modern classic: a deeply affecting story of solitude, independence, writing, grief, love, and life alongside a cat. On a cool summer evening in 1977, Mayumi Inaba hears a forlorn cry carried by the breeze off Tokyo's Tamagawa River. She follows the sound to the riverbank and finds a newborn kitten only the size of her palm dangling from a fence, abandoned. Overcome by tender affection, she takes the cat back to the small apartment she shares with her husband and christens her Mii: so begins an ineffable bond. Over the next twenty years, we follow Inaba, a poet and novelist by moonlight, as she pursues quiet, solitude, and a room of her own. Through it all, her cat, a fiercely independent creature in her own right, is her confidante and muse. From the late Mayumi Inaba, a winner of the Kawabata Prize and the Tanizaki Prize, Mornings Without Mii is not just a love letter to companionship: it's a poignant, searching meditation on the forces that enable us to connect, to create, and to build a life., INDIE BESTSELLER A New Yorker Best Book of the Year So Far A Must-Read: Literary Hub * The Millions * Kirkus Reviews * Shelf Awareness * BookPage * BookBub "A great love story." --Sigrid Nunez, The New Yorker "I have never read a book quite like this.
