Description

In Suki, fabulist Suniti Namjoshi weaves a delightful tapestry from threads of longing, loss, memory, metaphor, and contemplation.

The whole picture is a stunning evocation of the love and friendship shared between S and her Super Cat, Suki, a lilac Burmese.

Suki suggests that she could be a goddess, and S her high priestess.

S declines, but as they discuss the merits of vegetarianism, or the meaning of happiness, or morality, or just daily life, it soon becomes clear that the bond between them is a deep and complex one.

The days of Suki s life are figured as leaves, which fall vividly but irrevocably into time s stream and are recollected with a wild tenderness by grieving S, who learns through the disciplines of meditation how to lose what is most loved. This beautiful narrative, both memoir and elegy, offers solace and celebration to everyone who has felt the trust that passes between a person and a beloved creature.
