Cat Out of Hell - Softcover
By acclaimed storyteller Lynne Truss, author of the bestselling Eats, Shoots and Leaves, the mesmerising tale of a cat with nine lives, and a relationship as ancient as time itself and just as powerful.
The scene: a cottage on the coast on a windy evening. Inside, a room with curtains drawn. Tea has just been made. A kettle still steams.
Under a pool of yellow light, two figures face each other across a kitchen table. A man and a cat.
The story about to be related is so unusual yet so terrifyingly plausible that it demands to be told in a single sitting.
The man clears his throat, and leans forward, expectant.
'Shall we begin?' says the cat.

Review:
"A wonderful tale full of parodies, pastiches and paradoxes... pure joy" * Telegraph * "A novel as entertaining as it is addictive ... the best in humorous writing" * Sunday Telegraph * "One of those rare books that actually makes you laugh out loud... impossible not to read in one sitting" * Sunday Times * "Truss brings an eerie, 19th-century kind of horror into the present-day world" * Guardian * "A comic chiller in the best tradition of mad British humour" * Daily Express *
