Nana is on a road trip, but he is not sure where he is going. All that matters is that he can sit beside his beloved owner Satoru in the front seat of his silver van. Satoru is keen to visit three old friends from his youth, though Nana doesn't know why and Satoru won't say. Set against the backdrop of Japan's changing seasons and narrated with a rare gentleness and humour, Nana's story explores the wonder and thrill of life's unexpected detours. It is about the value of friendship and solitude, and knowing when to give and when to take. TRAVELLING CAT has already demonstrated its power to move thousands of readers with a message of kindness and truth. It shows, above all, how acts of love, both great and small, can transform our lives 546 Translated from the Japanese 650 0 Cats|vFiction 650 0 Pets and travel|vFiction 650 0 Human-animal relationships|vFiction 650 0 Conduct of life|vFiction 651 0 Japan|vFiction 655 7 Romaner|2saogf 655 7 Domestic fiction.|2lcgft 655 7 Road fiction.|2lcgft 700 1 Gabriel, Philip,|d1953-|etranslator 907 00 190114
