Cat and Shakespeare by Raja Rao

'A teasing comedy of manners exploring metaphysical themes'---Telegraph

The Cat and Shakespeare is a gentle, almost teasing fable of two friends. Govindan Nair, an astute, down-to-earth philosopher and clerk, tackles the problems of routine living with extraordinary common sense and gusto, and his refreshing and unorthodox conclusions continually panic Ramakrishna Pai, Nair's friend, neighbour and narrator of the story. This evocative novel brings alive the raw texture of Indian life, and delights in its humour.

'[A] pathbreaker of Indian writing in English'---Guardian
