He felt that the cat was much more interesting when he talked and thought that the cat talking was sort of the point of the story. I felt that the cat talked just long enough to allow him question his master's religion, which the master then later inspected himself (by visiting the rabbi's rabbi and talking with men of other or no faith). By the end of the book, the master feels differently about religion, and it was my opinion that the cat was the catalyst. Of course, to US the cat never really stops "talking," as he is the narrator. :)Grab the Lapelshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06627976543836396851noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5304920138891211736.post-50408550434466924432015-11-10T21:21:05.445-05:002015-11-10T21:21:05.445-05:00Great book!

The book follows the rabbi through some rough time in Paris and one sees him grow as a person. It was a very satisfying read.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
