There is a tenderness in Simone Martel's prose that marries well with its cool precision. It invites us into familiar spaces—backyard gardens, bedrooms—where mythical and magical forces are at work, and where a highly conscious cat lightfoots it in and out of the shadows. This is a sparkling, earthy, sexy story, also a resonant allegory of estrangement and self-fashioning.
