Cat Person

"Cat Man" is a short story by Kristen Ruben. It was published in New Yorker in December 2017, and it was distributed online. [1] [2]

From the Margot point of view, the story tells a short relationship between Margot and Robert in the third person story. Margot is a 20 year old college student working in an independent movie theater. Robert is a relatively older person who likes to buy red wine at a license booth. [1] The first courtship occurred primarily in text messages. A review by Slate writes: "This story explains how a text message replaces a more organic way to know someone," the "imaginary structure" of others who collapsed at the meeting Thereby enabling formation. This story represents a bad sexual encounter. Slate describes it as "the story of two people who do not know each other or do not seem to like each other very much, they will eventually lie down on the bed." Margot later refused Robert, and the end of the story was a bitter record. [3]

BBC said that short stories are "widely shared on the Internet, so we are discussing how much social media users are related to contemporary dates," BBC said. [4] "Washington Post" said it is a unique content in "New Yorker" because he gave a comment from young viewers. This story is the most downloaded novel published in New York this year, one of the most read novels in 2017. In the Atlantic, the unpleasant romance drawn in "Catman" seemed to resonate with myriad women and described it as "literary aid of the latest # MeToo moment". "[6] Individual reactions are mainly (but not perfectly) along the gender boundary (almost like Jane Austen. [7].) For many readers, 2017 as a woman in her twenties The emotions include "politeness of urgency and politeness at all times" [8]

After the story succeeded, Roupenian has signed a 7-digit contract with Scout Press in a bidding game on the theme of more than $ 1 million on the US market. [9]

"Catmen" is uneasy as it is too realistic for some readers. Its credibility leads to incredible emotional reactions, especially those who mistakenly believe in nonfiction. The quality that makes "cat men" look like genuine is the same as the quality that is commonly seen in personal articles. However, this is not particularly complicated. It realizes realism by using those same memoir techniques. Its range is small, with two main features. Many conversations are text messages, giving people a feeling of intimacy as if you read others' shoulders or listen to their personal thoughts.

Do you think that it is a dog or a cat? In the 2010 survey, 4,500 people were asked to self-identify that they were dogs, cats, two people, or both, and self-reported questionnaires were used to examine five personality traits. People claiming to be cats show higher neurosis scores and open scores than dog people and scores of extroversion, familiarity, and conscience are significantly lower. In other words, we (which I am a cat) tend to be exposed to more stress and are more open to all sorts of experiences, but show that self discipline, cooperation and confidence are low It is.

Cats capture the feelings of women in their twenties ... cats are inconsistent with our culture and women's attention is simple ... Cats are not the only short stories about young women .. .. Margot dislikes Richard's body is a sincere and fat shame. But we are all sitting in the story of a short story. This is a lot of fun.

So it is unexpected for some observers to see "Cat Men" taking off in a hurry. The frequency of reading short stories is relatively low, not novels. This shows that many readers who publicly comment on 'cat people' are not people who often read short stories. But, as if this is the only story in the world that can give subjectivity to young women, we are discussing 'cat people'. Given the current literary moment, those who admire the "cat story" are almost familiar with short stories. Over the past few months short fiction fans criticized the role of short stories in the literary world. They think that short stories are thought to be published by redhead children as if they deserve the reader's attention.
