The World According to Bob

The true and world-famous story about the friendship between street musician James and street cat Bob

Since Bob the Alley Cat was published in 2012, the book has become an international bestseller. The story of author James Bowen, a drug-addicted London street musician who found his way back to a healthy life through the presence of Bob, his adopted street cat, attracted a lot of attention. The World According to Bob is the sequel to this.

James, a busker in London, tells Bob the Alley Cat how he finds an injured cat in the stairwell of his flat. Although James can barely take care of himself, he takes the ginger tomcat to the vet and nurses him until he can stand on his own feet again. But Bob decides to stay and the two become inseparable. And Bob is no ordinary cat. Sitting on James' shoulder, he has become a familiar sight on the streets of London.

In The World According to Bob, James tells how Bob still shows him every day what is important in life. How Bob is his guardian angel in times of adversity, illness and danger, but also how they have fun together and conquer the hearts of many people around the world with their special friendship.
