Stephen
Spotte's
imaginative
novel
recounts
the
tales
of
a
scroungy
former
alley
cat
named
Jinx,
whose
memories
aren't
just
his
own
but
those
of
other
cats
who
existed
before
him,
one
of
which
was
Annipe,
Cleopatra's
pampered
pet.
Through
Annipe's
eyes
the
ancient
Mediterranean
world
of
Cleopatra
and
her
legendary
lovers,
Caesar
and
Antony,
spread
before
us
in
all
its
glory,
pathos,
and
absurdity.
Jinx
reveals
these
stories
telepathically
one
night
to
his
stoned
and
inebriated
owner
just
home
after
gall
bladder
surgery.
Annipe's
memories
are
bookended
by
Jinx's
own
that
detail
his
early
scavenging
days
in
bleak
urban
alleys.“Could
not
stop
reading
this
unique
and
curious
account
of
a
major
period
in
history.
Viewing
events
that
shook
the
ancient
world
through
the
eye
of
a
feline
makes
one
want
to
view
today’s
news
stories
through
the
same
lens.
Never
read
a
book
with
such
a
unique
perspective.
And
it
was
fun.”—Edward
R.
Ricciuti,
author
of
Bears
in
the Backyard
