Düss-Ruhr Book Club: My Beloved Monster by Caleb Carr

This month, we will be reading "My Beloved Monster" by Caleb Carr.

In this exquisite book novelist Caleb Carr tells the story of the “shared existence” he enjoyed for 17 years with his beloved cat, Masha. At the time of writing she is gone, he is going, and all that remains is to explain how they made each other’s difficult lives bearable. .  The Guardian comments that "The result is not just a lyrical double biography of man and cat but a wider philosophical inquiry into our moral failures towards a species which, cute internet memes notwithstanding, continues to get a raw deal."

All readers are welcome. RSVP here to receive the meeting information!
