Old Possum’s Book of Practical Cats by T.S. Eliot
My rating: 4 of 5 stars
This is a collection of poetry entirely involving cats by Eliot. I happen to reall like kitties, so this should be a favorite. I’m just not overly nutty about Eliot’s prose. My favorite of the lot is ‘Macavity, the Mystery Cat’. Otherwise most of it fell flat for me. A bit more zing and clever turns of words would’ve sold me more.
But, if you like kitties as I do, this should be in your library.
Bottom line: i recommend this little book. 7 out of ten points.
