The Ralph Steadman Book of Cats Hardcover - 2012

by Ralph Steadman

In this charming, funny, and outlandish book, cult-favorite aritst Ralph Steadman turns his unflinching eye—and his ruthless pen—to cats of all varieties.


Summary

Ralph Steadman, artist of distinction, caricaturist of brilliance, and longtime unsentimental cat lover, here shows us cats everywhere: cats in furniture, cat dictators, T. S. Eliot cats and Samuel Johnson cats, fashion cats and CATalogs, blot cats, splat cats, and fallen-from-skyscraper cats. There are bugs that live on cats, and uninvented cats, too.

Ranging from the fierce and furious to the whimsical and wistful, the whole world of feline life is here. In a cat book like no other, there is nothing soppy as Steadman exposes the heart and bone and sinew of these most independent and lovable pets.
