An anthology of prose and verse dealing with cats, which --the editor claims- are not a narrow specialty. A skimming of the names of contributors would indicate a wide variety of literary approaches, as he includes such people as T.S. Eliot, Sylvia Townsend Warner, Poe, ""Saki"", Stephen Vincent Benet, Lewis Carrol, ""Colette"", Perrault, and so on. There are short stories- poems- serious pieces- essays.
