I Am a Cat
Soseki Natsume
 In I Am a Cat, a supercilious, feline narrator describes the lives of an assortment of middle class Japanese people: Mr. Sneaze (literally translated from Chinno Kushami, 珍野苦沙弥, in the original Japanese) and family (the cat's owners), Sneaze's garrulous and irritating friend Waverhouse (Meitei, 迷亭), and the young scholar Avalon Coldmoon (Mizushima Kangetsu, 水島寒月) with his will-he-won't-he courtship of the businessman's spoilt daughter, Opula Goldfield (Kaneda Tomiko, 金田富子).
