Smith Street Books is a Melbourne publisher founded by Paul McNally, formerly publishing director of Hardie Grant Books, and since 2016 it has built a list of illustrated books with a light, offbeat touch. Neko is the work of Masayuki Oki, a photographer who travels Japan photographing its cats and has more than half a million followers on Instagram, along with a run of nature photography awards.
It is a book to give, or to keep for a quiet afternoon. Oki's cats hold court on Japan's cat islands, roam the streets for fish and attention, and settle in at temples, and the small format makes it as easy to leave on a side table as to slip onto a shelf. It suits anyone who loves Japan, cats, or both.
