[LM_NET] Book: The Cat by Richter

[Mary Ludwick <mludwick@IRVINGISD.NET>]

Have you read The cat, or, How I lost eternity by Richter?  I just
finished it.  It is on the ALA Notable Books list and the Batchelder
award list, reasons I placed it on my order list.

I found the plot bizarre. I can only guess the book spoke to many others
but it certainly did not speak to me.  Just curious about its appeal to
others....
