“I’ve been told that these stories are provocative. I really hope they are... if they provoke you to look once more at your grandmother, your mother or your neighbour, that’s all for the good” —Jane Campbell Cat Brushing is a dazzlingly short story collection about thirteen older women. Published in the author’s 80th year, this debut (!!) confronts the tragic misconceptions of aging and ignites the voices of women who are fighting to live on their own terms, energised by their desires and passions. Out one month today and we cannot wait to see this GORGEOUS cover sitting in bookshops 🐈📖💗💚
