The Cat by Georges Simenon is a taut psychological drama centered on a bitter, aging couple whose relationship has disintegrated into silent warfare. After decades of marriage, the only communication between them consists of terse written notes. Their animosity stems from a tragic, long-past incident—each blaming the other for the death of their beloved pets (a cat and a parrot). As the story unfolds, Simenon masterfully explores themes of resentment, isolation, and the quiet intensity of lifelong grudges, creating a haunting, intimate portrayal of emotional decay and human frailty.
