He's left behind his life in Berlin, which it turns out wasn't much--an ex-girlfriend, a neighborhood that had become too trendy for his taste. Surrounded by a desolate landscape that is scoured by surprisingly cold winds (not at all what he expected of southern Spain), he faces his daily failures: to connect with the innkeeper or any of the townsfolk, who all seem to be hiding something; to learn Spanish; to keep warm; to write. At last he succeeds in making an unlikely connection with one of the village's many feral cats. Does the cat have a message for him? And will their tenuous relationship be enough to turn his life around? \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eWith sharp intelligence and wry humor, Eugen Ruge's \u003ci\u003eCabo de Gata\u003c\/i\u003e proposes the biggest questions and illustrates how achieving happiness sometimes means giving oneself up to the foreign and the unknown.","brand":"Graywolf Press","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":45354613211287,"sku":"9781555977573","price":700.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9781555977573.webp?v=1767669843","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/cabo-de-gata-9781555977573","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
