As a result of a shipwreck, the main character, the only surviving crew member, finds himself on Mars, inhabited by anthropomorphic cats. Their civilization, dating back more than twenty thousand years, once mighty and majestic, is now in decline. The earthling gets to know young and old cats, scientists, politicians and peasants, makes attempts to re-educate cats, but eventually becomes a witness to the last days of the existence of the Feline state. The main character of the novel, Zhao Tzu-yue, is a lazy student, his name means "The Sage said", and his life credo is food, clothes, women and gambling. Using the example of the "Sage" and his entourage, Lao She shows the way of life and customs of Beijing society at the beginning of the 20th century, and especially the golden youth, who in the future will become part of the country's ruling elite. Folk storyteller Fan Baoqing and his adopted daughter Xiulian, fleeing from the hostilities taking place in China during World War II, roam from one city to another and perform their tales in front of a crowd. Humiliation, the constant danger of losing the audience and the stage, and uncertainty about the future leave a heavy imprint on their lives. . "Notes on the Cat City.
