The Cat Inside

Serves as both a memoir and an extended meditation on his relationships with his feline companions. The text provides a biographical sketch of the influential author, detailing his life dates, some of his numerous works, and his deep affection for cats. A significant portion of the excerpts consists of journal-like entries and reflective passages where Burroughs shares anecdotes about his cats, such as Ruski, Fletch, and Ed, using them as catalysts for examining his past, exploring dreams, and articulating philosophical views on animal nature and human cruelty, particularly toward dogs. The materials also include publication details from Penguin Books and a list of some of Burroughs's other notable works, like Naked Lunch and Junky. Ultimately, the writing focuses on the intimate, spiritual connection the author developed with his cats, framing them as psychic companions or "Familiars" who offered him a profound form of salvation and self-realization.You can listen and download our episodes for free on more than 10 different platforms:https://linktr.ee/book_shelterGet the Book now from Amazon:https://www.amazon.com/Cat-Inside-William-S-Burroughs/dp/0142000256?&linkCode=ll1&tag=cvthunderx-20&linkId=12d673eb984f85616ab8f4af79ed25d1&language=en_US&ref_=as_li_ss_tlProduced by:https://www.podcaistudio.com/
