Reviews
A "charmingly fey but slight novella" featuring Thomas Gray, a female cat of metaphysical inclinations, and eccentric Lucas Fysst, historian of science, Anglican priest and Fellow of Pembroke College, Cambridge. "Initially a clever, intelligent and--if a bit show-offy--civilized book, the guiding conceit eventually stretches into tedium, and the fragmentary episodes fail to cohere into a satisfying whole," said PW.
