Synopsis "The Fur Person"

2016 Reprint of 1957 Edition. Full facsimile of the original edition, not reproduced with Optical Recognition Software. This charming story is drawn from the true adventures of Sarton's own cat, and recounts his evolution from a stray to a gentleman cat, and finally, his emergence as a Fur Person. "A Fur Person is a cat who had decided to stay with people as long as he lives. This can only happen if a human being has imagined a part of himself into a cat just as the cat has imagined part of himself into a human being." Illustrated by Barbara Knox.

Eleanore Marie Sarton (Wondelgem, Bélgica, 1912–York, Estados Unidos, 1995). Poeta, memorialista y escritora, nació en Bélgica de padre belga-estadounidense y madre inglesa; la familia dejó Bélgica después del asesinato del archiduque Francisco Fernando. Autora muy prolífica, escribió poesía, novelas, libros infantiles y una obra de teatro, aunque su gran aportación literaria fueron sin duda sus diarios y memorias. Cosmopolita y políticamente comprometida, los temas que recorren sus obras son la amistad, las relaciones, el envejecimiento, la soledad y los derechos de la mujer.
