The thing is, it's a short 5* read if you love cats and Doris Lessing. The rest of you have already stopped reading.
Kindle readers note - this book is MUCH shorter than it looks. Two thirds of it is padded out with samples of other Doris Lessing novels.

Lessing is wholly unsentimental and pragmatic in her musings of cats past, but still effectively demonstrates a strong love for them. It's a wholly refreshing take on cat literature, which I find can be sappy and devoid of much depth. Lessing does anthropomorphise her cats' emotions somewhat, but if you've ever owned a cat you'll know exactly what she's talking about. The book is equal parts brutal and partisan, and it works wonderfully.
I expected a gentle reminiscence of cats in Lessings' life, not this parade of feline sex, murder, and dastardly behavior. Wow.
The last stories were much sweeter and fun but I felt I'd been put through the wringer beforehand.
