Distinctive illustrations and charming stories celebrating the pawsitively purrfect relationships between renowned authors and their beloved cats
Cats and writers are a match made in book heaven. Cats share a tendency to be introverts, as are many writers. Cats have served as trusted desk mates from the composition of a single poem to the creation of the first English dictionary. In this collection, author-illustrator duo Nava Atlas and Bob Eckstein capture these endearing relationships in Inspired by Cats, a witty and sophisticated collection profiling 60 famous authors and their beloved feline companions. Novelists, poets, humourists, short story writers and memoirists from all eras are represented, from Margaret Atwood, Edward Gorey and Judy Blume to Toni Morrison, Ernest Hemingway and Jun'ichiro Tanizaki. Stylishly illustrated and full of charming, touching, and sometimes humorous anecdotes of history’s most notable cat-loving writers, Inspired by Cats represents both cat enthusiasts and literature lovers in full colour.
