Book description
An in-depth exploration of the sometimes charming, sometimes gruesome feline creatures and ghosts of Japan. Davisson illuminates the vast realm of kaibyō, or supernatural cats, with historical and modern cultural context. Lushly illustrated in full color with dozens of ukiyo-e prints and drawings. A must-have book for the Japanophile and cat-lover alike! This second edition includes a gatefold reproduction of Takashi Murakami's 10-meter "Japan Supernatural" painting featuring a supernatural cat and an updated introduction from Davisson.

The sleep timer is a brilliant addition – I drift off to sleep with amazing stories. I've never experienced such a smooth audiobook player. The playback is seamless. A functional audiobook. It kept me entertained, but I wasn’t blown away. The narrator’s performance was competent, though some emotional scenes fell a bit flat. This audiobook exceeded all my expectations! The narrator's ability to convey emotion through voice alone was remarkable. I laughed, I gasped, I might have even teared up at points - all because of the incredible vocal performance. The story came alive in a way reading alone couldn't achieve.
