Reader Reviews
This review is from: Why Cats Paint: A Theory of Feline Aesthetics (Paperback)
I'd really probably only give this 3 1/2 stars. Great photos. Extremely interesting read until the last part of the book where it begins talking about the specific "artists" and in-depth interpretations of their style. At that point it becomes ridiculous to me, but still amusing and it does not loose its facination points. Overall a very intruiging book.
