Details

For cat lovers everywhere, these wonderful photographs highlight the felines who inhabit the streets of Istanbul, a city famous for its love of cats. This stunning photobook delves into the lives of the thousands of cats that roam the streets of Istanbul.

 

The photographs show the unique personalities of these street cats, each with its own story and charm. The historical and contemporary cultural significance of cats in Turkish society is presented in essays by the photographer Marcel Heijnen, haiku by Ian Row, and even first-person accounts written from the perspectives of the cats themselves – all interwoven with Marcel’s beautiful photography.
