The Cat by Georges Simenon is a character study of two people in a marriage that has turned sour. A quirky read.

Now that was a strange dark little story. Emile and Marguerite married in their 60s, the second marriage for both. They end up in a vindictive, cold and obsessive relationship after the deaths of their respective pets. It was a bit of a compulsive read for me, it’s well written and it’s the differences in the characters backgrounds and their stubbornness that leads to an inevitable ending.
