“When a cat adopts you there is nothing to be done about it except put up with it until the wind changes.” T.S. Eliot
TODAY'S BOOK:
Old Possum's Book of Practical Cats - T S Eliot
But this volume is the delightful one with light verses that most people who has seen the musical "Cats" know by heart. It is playful, sad, sentimental, funny and generally whimsical entertaining for the whole family - not only for cat lovers. Eliot originally wrote these verses about practical cats for his godchildren and included it in letters to them during the 1930s. In writing and sending them, he used the nickname name "Old Possum", which Ezra Pound - his friend and fellow author - had given him.
