Product Description

Product Description
This is the tale of Hyam, a cat famous for talking himself out of a part at an audition for a West End production - for he is an actor. He tells his own story in a series of delightfully readable poems, taking us on his travels through the ups and downs of theatre life and his many escapades as a sophisticated actor, a country puss and a family pet. Blessed with a sense of humour and an abounding love of people, Hyam is, indeed, a most unusual cat. As well as her love of the theatre, Pamela Douglas has always enjoyed writing and drawing. Married to the late theatrical director Wallace Douglas, after her acting career she combined a busy family life with compiling several collections of poetry, a set of children's stories, writing freelance articles for magazines and studying interior design. Since returning to her beloved West Sussex, she has run her own interior furnishing business, had several of her paintings exhibited in London galleries and continues to write in the company of her present most beautiful cat called Treacle.

5.0 out of 5 stars Purrrrrfect - oh I know Cliche but hey !!, 12 Nov 2008
By Jonathan Miller "jonathan miller" (united kingdom) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: Hyam the Cat Who Talked Too Much: Tales of a Theatrical Cat (Paperback)
I love this book - I'm a Cat lover so I'm biased , it is by turns very Funny , touching and sad .the verse is neither trite nor intrusive - but economical in the best way, in that it sets the scene in the minds eye with just the right amount of detail touchs of colour but always straight to the point .

Enjoy - its in many ways a return to how books used to be .
