The whole of volume two consists of Hoffmann's novel THE LIFE AND OPINIONS OF KATTER MURR . a subtle satire which tells of the doings of Murr the tomcat. KATER MURR one of Hoffmann's longer works was unfinished at the time of his death. The first volume was published in 1820 and the second in 1822. The projected third volume was never written.

"The celebrated short tales and novels of . Hoffmann . are a byword for mellowness of background and maturity of form . they convey the grotesque rather than the terrible." - Lovecraft Supernatural Horror in Literature p. 45.
