Acerca de esta escucha
A girl struggling to fit in. A homeless kitten. An unexpected job offer in an unfamiliar country that changes everything.CJ had a long history of escaping places and people she wasn't fond of. But for the sake of a silver tabby, she decided to stay in Japan for a while. This decision helped her open up her heart and mind, revisit her way of thinking, and reconnect with her estranged family. Let this heartwarming memoir take you to the land of cats and cherry trees as you read about CJ's adventures - from the craziness of Furukawa's naked men festival, the experience of forest bathing and the significance of finding a life purpose or ikigai, to the temples of Takayama, and wonders of Cat Island - you'll see what a homeless kitten found outside a temple in Japan taught her about an old culture and new beginnings.

Unfortunately, the story becomes muddled and stalled by the robotic tone of the virtual voice narration. It is strange that the virtual voice makes so many mistakes in inflection, timing, pausing, and pronunciation. One might expect that an app or a program might have correct pronunciations built into it, but not in this instance. The lack of natural vocal cadence was particularly injurious to the material.
The story and overall descriptions are strong enough that it held my interest long enough for me to finish listening until the end. The use of Virtual Voice instead of a trained actor was definitely a missed opportunity to elevate and enhance the impact of the book. I would recommend this to fans of the author. It might be a nice, light read for cat lovers, as well.
