the guest cat
Hiraide Takashi The Guest Cat
A couple in their thirties live in a small rented cottage in a quiet part of Tokyo. They work at home as freelance writers. They no longer have very much to say to one another. One day a cat invites itself into their small kitchen. She is a beautiful creature. She leaves, but the next day comes again, and then again and again. New, small joys accompany the cat; the days have more light and colour. Life suddenly seems to have more promise for the husband and wife; they go walking together, talk and share stories of the cat and its little ways, play in the nearby Garden. But then something happens that will change everything again. The Guest Cat is an exceptionally moving and beautiful novel about the nature of life and the way it feels to live it. Written by Japanese poet and novelist Takashi Hiraide, the book won Japan’s Kiyama Shohei Literary Award, and was a bestseller in France and America.

Saki Tobermory and Other Stories
‘Tobermory’ – the title story of this collection – is widely considered one of Saki’s finest pieces, in which a short-sighted dinner-party guest introduces a talking cat to the diners, inadvertently revealing gossip and pushing fickle characters into the limelight – in the process undermining the common perceptions of grandiose and genteel high society. From some of his earliest successes, such as ‘Gabriel-Ernest’, ‘The Bag’ and the Clovis stories, about a young man with an impish sense of humour, to later tales such as ‘The Boar-Pig’, which is as bizarre as it is hilarious, and ‘The Toys of Peace’, which he was never able to see in print, this selection contains a wealth of well-known tales with vastly different themes – from reincarnation to psychological warfare – and bearing every trademark token of wit with which Saki has enthralled generations of eager readers. Contains: ‘The Blood-Feud of Toad-Water’, ‘Gabriel-Ernest’, ‘The Bag’, ‘The Mouse’, ‘Esme’, ‘Tobermory’, ‘Mrs Packletide’s Tiger’, ‘Hermann the Irascible’, ‘The Unrest-Cure’, ‘The Jesting of Arlington Stringham’, ‘Sredni Vashtar’, ‘The Chaplet’, ‘Filboid Studge’, ‘The Music on the Hill’, ‘The Hounds of Fate’, ‘The She-Wolf’, ‘Laura’, ‘The Boar-Pig’, ‘The Open Window’, ‘The Schartz-Metterklume Method’, ‘The Storyteller’, ‘The Lumber Room’, ‘The Philanthropist and the Happy Cat’, ‘The Toys of Peace’, ‘Tea’, ‘A Bread-and-Butter Miss’, ‘Bertie’s Christmas Eve’, ‘Forewarned’, ‘The Interlopers’ and ‘The Bull’

Stoker Bram Dracula's Guest and Other Weird Tales
Although Bram Stoker is best known for his world-famous novel Dracula, he also wrote many shorter works on the strange and the macabre. This collection, comprising Dracula's Guest and Other Weird Stories, a volume of spine-chilling short stories collected and published by Stoker's widow after his death, and The Lair of the White Worm, an intensely intriguing novel of myths, legends and unspeakable evil, demonstrate the full range of his horror writing. From the petrifying open tomb in 'Dracula's Guest' to the mental breakdown depicted in 'The Judge's House' and 'Crooken Sands', these terrifying tales of the uncanny explore the boundaries between life and death, known and unknown, animal and human, dream and reality.
