This book is magnificently silly: Jane Austen's Pride and Prejudice told from a feline point of view. Every chapter begins with a short section of one of the original chapters rewritten with cat protagonists, followed by part of the original. From Chapter Seventeen: "In the meantime, all the Bennet sisters were cheered by the thought of the splendid ball Mr. Bingley was planning to procure. It was said to be rather large and to contain a hint of catnip and two silver bells." All chapters are illustrated with at least one gilt-framed photo of a cat involving some action appropriate to the text, many with Regency props. I only wish that the compilers had taken more trouble to make sure all the cat photos illustrating the actions of a single character were of the same cat; as it is cat-Elizabeth Bennet is represented in different chapters by every kind and color of cat you can imagine.
