'Grey cat strolls around the bed at night, choosing her favored place, in the angle behind my knees or against the curve of my foot. She licks my face delicately, then settles down. In the morning when she wishes me to wake, she crouches on my chest and pats my face with her paw. If I am on my side, she crouches, looking into my face. Soft, soft touches of her paw....' Unmistakenly Lessing, this book insinuates itself into the imagination with the skill and grace of a cat, a brilliant evocation of feline existence .... "In the interplay of these two cats.... can be seen the way we affect our animals. It is a sobering display, brilliantly described" - Steve Smith - Observer

Doris Lessing recounts the cats that have moved and amused her, from the kittens that overran her childhood home to the wrenching decline of El Magnifico, whose story unfolds in a new essay, appearing here for the first time." "Particularly Cats also evokes Lessing's own story in relation to cats, how they affect her and she them, communicating in a language of mood and gesture that all cat-owners will recognize.
