Grey-furred and amber-eyed, Barbery's four Chartreux cats keep her company as she works from her house in the French countryside, entertaining her with their quirks and foibles, inspiring her with their beauty, and soothing her nerves.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e But that's not all. For Kirin, Ocha, Mizu and Petrus - named after the writer's love of all things Japanese, and good wine - are no ordinary felines. These intelligent creatures have taken it upon themselves to guide their owner's writing - flicking aside sections of her manuscript with a disdainful tail, pointing an approving paw at others. And it's time these put-upon literary consultants got the recognition they deserve.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e With delicious wit and irony, the international bestselling author of The Elegance of the Hedgehog gives an insight into her writing life - and the paws behind the pen. Accompanied by delightful illustrations by Maria Guitart, The Writer's Cats is the perfect gift for cat lovers and book lovers everywhere.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Griffin Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":55739228160373,"sku":"9781805333746","price":12.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0379\/1365\/7388\/files\/9781805333746.jpg?v=1754474124","url":"https:\/\/www.griffinbooksonline.co.uk\/products\/9781805333746","provider":"Griffin Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
