RECOMMENDS: “Writers and Their Cats” by Alison Nastasi

HER TAKE

            “This collection of stories peers into the relationships between 45 famous writers and the various cats that have provided them with both companionship and creative inspiration. From Allen Ginsberg and Sylvia Plath to Judy Blume, Stephen King, Gloria Steinem and, of course, Ernest Hemingway and Ray Bradbury, each portrait illuminates the indisputable literati-feline connection. With the majority of the cat books on my shelf qualifying as either cat humor or cat behavior and care, this is a welcome addition and an enjoyable read.”
