★★★★★ Lily the cat is everything. The man loves Lily, only Lily, as for female human, he doesn't care if it's his ex-wife or lover or his mother. Is he an owner or servant? Well, does it matter 🔽 Book review and notes 🔽 Lily the cat is everything. The man loves Lily, only Lily, as for female human, he doesn't care if it's his ex-wife or lover or his mother. A typical obsessive love story from Tanizaki, it's just that the man is attracted to a cat, a beautiful, Western coquettish, pure white female cat. Is he an owner or servant? Well, does it matter because serving Lily is his happiness. She cares much less, but she probably knows her human competitors are way below her.
