The patriarchy really did women and cats dirty, but Anna Go-Go is here to set the story straight. From cat deities in Egypt to Christian demonology manuals decrying innocent kitties, and to famous cat lovers such as Elizabeth Taylor, Florence Nightingale and Mark Twain, Cat Lady Manifesto shares gloriously witty meditations on life, love and all things kitty-related.

So crack open a tin of Fancy Feast, sharpen your claws on the couch and settle in for a purr-fect adventure through the fascinating and bizarre history of the 'crazy cat lady'.
