Anyone that has a cat will recognise the truth of this tender biography by The Gentle Author. I was always disparaging of those who doted over their pets, as if this apparent sentimentality were an indicator of some character flaw. That changed when I bought a cat, just a couple of weeks after the death of my father. Filled with sentiment yet never sentimental, The Life & Times of Mr Pussy is a literary hymn to the intimate relationship between humans and animals. AUTHOR: Since 2009, The Gentle Author has published a daily story at SPITALFIELDS LIFE amounting to over 5,000 tales about the culture of London and the East End. Drawing a large international audience, SPITALFIELDS LIFE was chosen by The Guardian as the best London blog among the best city blogs around the world. The Gentle Author has published numerous books including Spitalfields Life, The Gentle Author's London Album, Spitalfields Nippers, The Cries of London, The Life & Times of Mr Pussy and The Creeping Plague of Ghastly Facadism, and written features for The Financial Times, The Daily Telegraph, The Guardian, World Of Interiors, New Statesman and Frieze. SELLING POINTS: . An acclaimed literary biography of a cat . The Times Literary Supplement: "This small, beautiful book is an elegy to companionship. Encompassing both the everyday and the profound, it should be judged no less valid for the fact that the friend in question is a cat." . An ideal gift for any cat owner 1 colour, 1 b/w illustration
Ideal for readers interested in reading.
