Abstract
This lyrically told, richly illustrated fable for adults is the tale of a woman's search, in the wake of her mother's death, for a missing cat -- and a reminder that love, even when it goes astray, does not stay lost forever. This statement on the book's back cover gets it right. The story is on the very edge of fable or perhaps one step beyond fable, but I cannot resist including it in the collection. The process the searcher goes through is highly instructive. It touches on so much that is human. The San Francisco Chronicle rightly says that the story both honors the darkness around us and keeps the same darkness at bay.
