I did not finish this book. It just was not my cup of tea.

This author is a noticer. He notices far more about a situation or a person that the average humanoid. His verse is a freefall look at chapters of a man's life. His writing style reflects his work in the visual and poetic arts. This is not an easy read. If you need a step by step plot, push aside your OCD and take this in sound bites. My thanks to the author and LibraryThing for a complimentary copy. I wonder if we ever rode the El together, Mr. Russell.

This book was a lovely surprise: dense and poetic. The voices feel authentic, and the details narrated are crystal clear. There are definitely times when stuck reading an ebook on the phone a reader wishes to experience a pace different to the hurry-up-and-wait of the world, and Ari Figue's Cat really offers that escape. Interesting that the post-modern patchwork was achieved by a visual artist rather than an experienced writer.

To be honest, I did not get it. I received it as some kind of stream of consciousness, more controlled than what you usually read. I have seen one review comparing it to an abstract picture, but without shapes and colors, what is an abstract tableau? Who is the elusive cat? a symbol, an allegory, but of what? If it had been described as poetry, I would understand better. If it was along some nouveau roman style, that too could be possible, bu I on't find the intimity of Sarraute, nor the genie of Bataille. Sorry, not for me.… (altro)
