Cats, be they much loved pets or inscrutable creatures, lend themselves to stories and literary invention.

Part of the Macmillan Collector’s Library; a series of stunning pocket size classics. These beautiful books make perfect gifts or a treat for any book lover. This edition is edited by anthologist, editor and literary agent Becky Brown.

Classic Cat Stories is a beautiful anthology that includes fairy tales and fables from the likes of Rudyard Kipling and Charles Perrault as well as comic tales from Saki and E. F. Benson. Cats, of course, have always had a dark and mysterious side which is explored to chilling effect by the likes of Edgar Allan Poe in The Black Cat and H. P. Lovecraft in The Cats of Ulthar. But above all, we love them and you’ll find here stories about all kinds of cats that tug at the heartstrings and which celebrate their curious ways.

A wonderfully entertaining selection of stories about cats from Rudyard Kipling, Mark Twain, Jerome K. Jerome, L. M. Montgomery, Saki, M. R. James, Mary E. Wilkins Freeman, E. F. Benson, Walter de la Mare, Charles Perrault, Honoré de Balzac translated by Carl Van Vechten, Ethel Colburn Mayne, Stephen Vincent Benet, H. P. Lovecraft, E. Nesbit, W. L. Alden, Compton Mackenzie, St John Lucas, Edgar Allan Poe and Damon Runyon.
