Description - The Cat Sanctuary: An intriguing novel of sisters, childhood and the complexities of family lives by Patrick Gale

A character filled, moving early Patrick Gale novel about people and the complexities of life and relationships

'A powerful and moving novel' Independent on Sunday

Judith shares her life with her partner Joanna on the lonely wilds of Bodmin Moor, far from the memories and trauma of her childhood. But when Judith's sister, Deborah, is tragically widowed, the women agree to meet.

What is intended to be a harmonious reunion becomes an entanglement of resentment, jealousy and desire, as aspects and secrets of the past surface, forcing themselves into an uneasy present, with some surprising results.

'Engrossing . . . Gale is a charmingly idiosyncratic writer who could not write a cliche if he tried' Daily Telegraph
