3.A Street Cat Named Bob
《一个叫鲍勃的流浪猫》
A Street Cat Named Bob is an international sensation, landing on the bestseller list in England for 52 consecutive weeks and selling in 26 countries around the world. Now, James and Bob are ready to share their true story with the U.S. in this tale unlike any you’ve ever read of a cat who possesses some kind of magic.
When street musician James Bowen found an injured cat curled up in the hallway of his apartment building, he had no idea how much his life was about to change. James was living hand to mouth on the streets of London, barely making enough money to feed himself, and the last thing he needed was a pet. Yet James couldn't resist helping the strikingly intelligent but very sick animal, whom he named Bob. He slowly nursed Bob back to health and then sent the cat on his way, imagining that he would never see him again. But Bob had other ideas.
Perfect for fans of Marley & Me: Life and Love with the World's Worst Dog and Dewey: The Small-Town Library Cat That Changed the World, this instant classic about the power of love between man and animal has taken the world by storm and is guaranteed to be a huge hit with American fans as well.
James Bowen是位在街头流浪的艺人,微薄的收入和被社会边缘化的身分让他连养活自己都很困难,根本没有能力再饲养一只猫。可是有一天,当James疲累地返回简陋的居所时,竟然发现一只受伤的流浪猫蜷曲在他的家门前。
他深深的被这只猫咪吸引,并为猫咪取名为Bob,把身上仅剩的钱全花在治疗Bob上面,慢慢照顾他直到恢复健康。Bob康复之后,James想让他恢复自由,并做好永远都不会再见到Bob的心理准备,但Bob显然有自己的想法,而且非常聪明,聪明到James发现自己竟然离不开Bob了。
Bob用不可思议的影响力让James再次感受到社会温暖的一面,和Bob的这场邂逅不但让James寻回遗失已久的亲情,更从此改变了他的人生。
