The Cat at Mrs. Drimley's Door

Angebote / Angebote:

Mrs. Elsa Dora Drimley lived in a tall and crooked house at the edge of a tall and crooked cliff along an inlet on a northern shore. Her cat, Mulligan, was quite bitter about his name. Who would want to be named after stew? Mrs. Drimley was a practical sort of woman, though, and had served her husband one variation or another of stew, which Mr. Drimley affectionately referred to as his helping of mulligan, each and every night of their twenty-seven years together..."Mrs. Drimley has comfortably lived in the same house and has done the same things with the same person every day for the last twenty-seven years. Then, everything changes when two things happened almost at once: she becomes a widow and a fluffy grey kitten appears at her door. Facing life alone after a peaceful marriage, Mrs. Drimley welcomes the kitten into her home in exchange for the gift of three fish each day. She soon learns that this cat--and her new life--are anything but ordinary. Together, Mulligan and Mrs. Drimley navigate the treacherous path Mrs. Drimley must follow as she builds a new life full of community, creativity, and adventure she never knew she wanted.
