Minka And Curdy by Antonia White Estimated delivery 4-14 business days Format Hardcover Condition Brand New Description Antonia White was devoted to her cats throughout her life - as she wrote the famous Frost in May Quartet, they were her constant (and disruptive) companions. In the delightful Minka and Curdy, she fictionalised her experiences. Publisher Description One of the most enchanting books about cats ever written, Minka and Curdy describes the adventures - and misadventures - of two very different kittens. Victoria, a real tyrant of a cat, spent so many years training her owner to be the ideal hostess that Mrs Bell feels it would be disrespectful to replace that formidable creature. But her resolve is worn down, and she finally agrees to take a marmalade kitten - and is immediately offered a Siamese that she also simply cannot resist. This is the story of a writer seduced by the contrasting charms of two kittens: Curdy, lively and mischievous; and Minka, elegant, imperious, and disdainful of the ginger upstart. Delightfully illustrated with line drawings, this is a witty and charming love letter to feline companionship from the author of Frost in May, and the perfect book for all cat lovers.
