I am a Cat ( 吾輩 わがはい は 猫 ねこ である) 1905

A lost cat takes up residence in the home of a teacher, from where he offers a no-holds-barred commentary on his master, his master's household, the neighborhood, Japanese society, and human beings in general.

(notes: this lengthy work is less a novel and more a series of episodes - it can as well be read in pieces as straight through; Chapter 1 was initially written as stand-alone - there is some discontinuity between Chapter 1 and the following chapters)
