The Great Adventure of Wo Ti
Macmillan, 1992
For certain individuals, a life of ease generates its own un-ease. So it is for the biggest, fattest carp dwelling in the pond of the paradisiacal Summer Palace. Wo Ti's constant searching is a bother to the other fish, and it comes to an end only when Wo Ti hatches a plan to rid the pond of an intrusive cat, Kitty Ho. In a light and fanciful manner, Nathan Zimelman shows us how some (all?) of us need a little drama, adrenaline, and relief to nudge us into a satisfying state of mind.
