Su emocionante misión consiste nada más y nada menos que en salvar los libros que están en peligro y extender así el amor por estos objetos, bellos e inigualables, que son parte imprescindible de nuestra vida.

«Una fábula mágica sobre el inmenso poder de la lectura. -Corriere di Bologna

«Cada vez más gente compra libros online y los lee en un eReader (o escucha audiolibros mientras hace otras tareas), El gato que amaba los libros da a los lectores la oportunidad de ver reflejada su relación con la palabra impresa. Esta conmovedora y original novela nos invita a recordar lo maravilloso que es acurrucarse con un libro y saborear el placer sensorial de pasar las páginas al sumergirse en una buena historia. Japan Times

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

From the #1 bestselling author in Japan comes a celebration of books, cats, and the people who love them, infused with the heartwarming spirit of The Guest Cat and The Travelling Cat Chronicles.

Bookish high school student Rintaro Natsuki is about to close the secondhand bookstore he inherited from his beloved bookworm grandfather. Then, a talking cat appears with an unusual request. The feline asks for--or rather, demands--the teenager's help in saving books with him. The world is full of lonely books left unread and unloved, and the cat and Rintaro must liberate them from their neglectful owners.

Their mission sends this odd couple on an amazing journey, where they enter different mazes to set books free. Through their travels, the cat and Rintaro meet a man who leaves his books to perish on a bookshelf, an unwitting book torturer who cuts the pages of books into snippets to help people speed read, and a publishing drone who only wants to create bestsellers. Their adventures culminate in one final, unforgettable challenge--the last maze that awaits leads Rintaro down a realm only the bravest dare enter...

An enthralling tale of books, first love, fantasy, and an unusual friendship with a talking cat, The Cat Who Saved Books is a story for those for whom books are so much more than words on paper.
