Product Description
Product Description
The cat has been with us since time began - think back, for example, to ancient Egypt. Enigmatic, independent, surprising, single-minded, loving - cats are all these things and impose themselves on our lives. The haiku is an ancient and honourable Japanese verse form - three lines, 17 syllables, encapsulating a vision of the essence of the thing, scene or person being written about. Cat Haiku presents cats as you've never seen them before. In a series of brilliant vignettes, Deborah Coates gets inside the minds of our cats and comes up with some surprising revelations I yowl to the moon; I am king of the night. Hear Me and weep, Fluffy. I figure if I Stare at this door long enough, You will let me out. You will never look at your (or anyone else's) cat the same way again.
From the Publisher
A quirky and clever collection of beautifully illustrated haiku written from the elusive 'cat's eye' viewpoint - a wonderful book for cat-lovers everywhere --This text refers to the Paperback edition.
