"Un homenaje a las librerías, a los libros y a todos aquellos que los aman. Una lectura para recrearse y saborear con un buen té japonés. Una de las novelas japonesas traducida a más idiomas en los últimos años Libro favorito de las librerías independientes en Estados Unidos La epopeya de Rintaro, el joven heredero de una entrañable librería de viejo, y de Tora, un sabio e ingenioso gato atigrado, se ha convertido en un fulgurante éxito internacional. Su emocionante misión consiste nada más y nada menos que en salvar los libros que están en peligro y extender así el amor por estos objetos, bellos e inigualables, que son parte imprescindible de nuestra vida. Del siempre fascinante Japón nos llega esta hermosa historia, cargada de sabiduría, magia y pasión por la lectura, que ya ha conquistado a lectores de todo el mundo. «Una fábula mágica sobre el inmenso poder de la lectura.» -Corriere di Bologna «Cada vez más gente compra libros online y los lee en un eReader (o escucha audiolibros mientras hace otras tareas), El gato que amaba los libros da a los lectores la oportunidad de ver reflejada su relación con la palabra impresa. Esta conmovedora y original novela nos invita a recordar lo maravilloso que es acurrucarse con un libro y saborear el placer sensorial de pasar las páginas al sumergirse en una buena historia.» Japan Times ENGLISH DESCRIPTION From the #1 bestselling author in Japan comes a celebration of books, cats, and the people who love them, infused with the heartwarming spirit of The Guest Cat and The Travelling Cat Chronicles. Bookish high school student Rintaro Natsuki is about to close the secondhand bookstore he inherited from his beloved bookworm grandfather. Then, a talking cat appears with an unusual request. The feline asks for--or rather, demands--the teenager's help in saving books with him. The world is full of lonely books left unread and unloved, and the cat and Rintaro must liberate them from their neglectful owners. Their mission sends this odd couple on an amazing journey, where they enter different mazes to set books free. Through their travels, the cat and Rintaro meet a man who leaves his books to perish on a bookshelf, an unwitting book torturer who cuts the pages of books into snippets to help people speed read, and a publishing drone who only wants to create bestsellers. Their adventures culminate in one final, unforgettable challenge--the last maze that awaits leads Rintaro down a realm only the bravest dare enter... An enthralling tale of books, first love, fantasy, and an unusual friendship with a talking cat, The Cat Who Saved Books is a story for those for whom books are so much more than words on paper.Shipping Notes

Entrance to Fellini Heaven!
I don't think anyone needs to justify the greatness of Fellini as a director or Fellini movies as the greatest movies ever made. It is another thing to have most of his movies in one collection and be able to see them in the order they were produced.
Presently, I am in Fellini Heaven and Rota's music is in my head most of the day.
It is the greatest movie experience of my 84 year old life. Thank you, thank you, thank you!
As far as packaging, I am not happy with the weird packaging of these movies. Storage is going to be a problem!
When package arrived as quickly as Prime usually delivers, I was disappointed to find two discs floating outside of their fastening. (I have played half of the collection and so far have not found a problem.)
I guess trying to fit all of these movies into a package is going to present a problem, so I might understand the decision to package them as they did. If the disks are O.K., I can live with the packaging.
Meanwhile, I truly love having most of his movies in one packaging and, thanks to Criterion, the most magnificent documentaries about each movie. Just with the movies I have seen, I feel a total connection with Fellini I never had before. I almost feel he is my spiritual godfather! Long live this genius!!!!

A must-have for any Fellini fan
When this was initially announced I was determined to add to my own library, however my economic situation at the time prevented me from buying it. It'd be a couple years before I finally had a little more financial freedom and ordered my copy. As noted in other reviews there was a common occurrence of discs coming loose from their little individual pocket and slide around free, potentially demanding the disc. This did happen to my order, but thankfully there was no damage. This a great collection, however there are a few exclusions that prevent me from giving it a full Five Star rating. His later films are not very good and feel like a great director falling into the pit of self parody. And the Ship Sails On is probably the worst of the entire collection. The disc devoted to a documentary on Marcello Mastroianni (which still haven't watched) seems like it's taking valuable space where an actual Fellini film should belong. I was hoping that they'd include Casanova, The Clowns, or even his last film, Voices of the Moon (which I still haven't seen). But that's the end of my minor quibble with these otherwise magnificent collection. I finally had in my possession all of his early films, a few a was seeing for the first time. I watched them in chronological order, beginning with Variety Lights, which he was actually a co-director and doesn't take much credit for. His early neorealist period was surprisingly good. I was so used to the period from Juliet of the Spirits onward that I thought I was going to be rather bored by these films. I was just happy to finally own a copy of Nights of Cabiria, which is still my favourite of his films. The collection also includes his contribution to an anthology film titled Spirits of the Dead, titled Toby Dammit. I was doubly surprised that it was not the dubbed version in which Terrance Stamp is dubbed by an anonymous Italian actor but retained his actual voice. The special features are plentiful and sound satisfy anyone who wants to appreciate the magic of Fellini. Criterion always puts out great quality releases and this is among their crowning achievements. Hopefully in the foreseeable future they'll release a box set of Luis Buñuel films.
