Kitten: A Novel

A magnetic, stirring debut novel about an adrift young woman whose growing fascination with her boyfriend’s cat ushers her into the possibilities of her own life—but not without first threatening to unravel it.

Both darkly playful and unexpectedly heartfelt, this debut from a major new voice in fiction is a timeless reckoning with the uncertainty of becoming a person in a world that is as disorienting as it is full of hope and promise.

This is for the reader who wants character-driven literary fiction with endearingly weird protagonists navigating life transitions. Think Convenience Store Woman by Sayaka Murata and/or Big Swiss by Jen Beagin.
