Klappentext Winner of the Books Are My Bag Readers Award for Best Poetry Collection 'These poems pack a hefty emotional punch' Jackie Kay 'Every page of The Cat Prince brought me gladsome joy' Daljit Nagra 'The Peter Pan of poetry' Gutter Magazine The Cat Prince & Other Poems is the third collection from prize-winning poet, and author of Boy Friends , Michael Pedersen. All moggy moxie , Pedersen croons to the beauty and devastation of love, loss, friendship, cats and careless joy.
