Seven Lives and One Great Love : Memoirs of a Cat - Thryft
Seven Lives and One Great Love : Memoirs of a Cat - Thryft

Survival and wonder during World War II.

"Seven Lives and One Great Love: Memoirs of a Cat" would be a good read for those who enjoy historical fiction and stories of resilience. The book offers a unique perspective on World War II through the eyes of a young cat named Julek. Julek's ability to assume countless identities and speak the language of dogs makes for a captivating tale of survival. The most distinctive aspect of the book is the use of a feline narrator, which helps to bring a sense of wonder to even the darkest moments of the war.

Description

If you have ever lived with cats you know how cunning, tender, ferocious, underhanded, ingenious, foolish and completely adorable they can be. The same words can be used to describe the hero of this novel, Sugar. This is the story—a love story of epic dimensions—of Sugar, a cat with a keen wit and a reflective nature, and his human, Madamigella, a writer with a frenetic and impossibly dispersive life.   In this his seventh life, Sugar has countless stories to tell and a remarkable talent for telling them. But his real area of expertise lies in his preternatural ability to domesticate his humans—whatever you do, don’t even suggest that we are the ones who domesticate him and his feline relatives!   With wit and a broad repertoire of cultural references, Sugar recounts his days and nights spent with Madamigella in a novel that fits squarely into the illustrious tradition of feline literature a la T.S. Eliot, Edgar Allan Poe, Baudelaire, Bukowski, and Celine.
