Requirements: ePUB Reader, 3.8MB
Overview: These playful verses by a celebrated poet have delighted readers and cat lovers around the world ever since they were gathered for publication in 1939. As Valerie Eliot has pointed out, there are a number of references to cats in T.S. Eliot’s work, but it was to his godchildren, particularly Tom Faber and Alison Tandy, in the 1930s, that he first revealed himself as “Old Possum” and for whom he composed his poems. In this captivating new edition, the well-known illustrator Edward Gorey gives a fresh interpretation of “Mr. Mistoffelees,” “Growltiger,” “The Rum Turn Tugger,” “Bustopher Jones,” “Skimbleshanks,” “Macavity: the Mystery Cat,” and a variety of other memorable feline strays, all of whom have been brought to life on the stage in the hit musical Cats.
