Review Quotes




"Only the Cat Knows is a crushing depiction of everyday life in Mao-era China. It teaches us of a world many of us have not had to live through and provides insight into modern China."-Audrey Fong, Soapberry Review


"Meng skillfully depicts the narrator's unraveling through his paranoia about [a] cat [that witnesses his crime]. The book takes on an Edgar Allan Poe-like quality with its darkness and desperation..."--Susan Blumberg-Kason, Asian Review of Books
