«Old Possum's Book of Practical Cats» is T. S. Eliot's collection of poems, published by Faber & Faber in paperback (64 pages, in English).
A humorous poetry collection portraying a gallery of cats with very distinct personalities, such as the elusive Macavity and the conjuring Mr. Mistoffelees. With rhythm and wordplay, T. S. Eliot turns each feline portrait into a small scene full of character.
The collection originally appeared in 1939; this edition, illustrated by Nicolas Bentley, was published in 1976.
An option for those seeking classic English poetry with humour, as well as for cat enthusiasts.
Thomas Stearns Eliot was a poet, essayist and playwright. He was a leading figure of modernist poetry in the English language where he reinvigorated the art through his use of language, writing style, and verse structure. He is also noted for his critical essays, which often re-evaluated long-held cultural beliefs.
