Book Description
This sophisticated and intricate novel, based on true events, takes place in the late nineteenth century and begins with Henry Clifford, a man of taste and worldly philosophy, whose simple determination to do as he likes and live as he wishes is threatened when his daughter falls in love with an unsuitable man. With subtle twists and turns in a fascinating portrait of society, Maurice Baring conveys the moral that love is too strong to be overcome by mere mortals.

5.0 out of 5 stars
A classic book that everybody should read., Jan 27 2002
By Rudy Horn - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Cats Cradle (Hardcover)
my dad told me to read this book and I looked at him like he was crazy. I hadn't read a book any harder than Harry Potter and MAD magazine for the last few yeats. I agreed to give it a try and sat down and read the back, this sounds like an intersesting book so a started to read. After about an hour of reading it I realized that I couldn't put the book down. One thing about Cats Cradle is that its a very well writen book but it doesn't have a high diffucuty of reading, so a boy like me who could read and enjoy it. I wonder Voneguit knew that his book would apeal to such a large audience, and I wonder what age group it was ment for. If their is 5 books that I think everyone should read in their lives Cats Cradle would deffenitly be one of them. The book is funny, it makes you think, and it is very very well written. So if you havn't read this book, jump into your car or bike or whatever and go to the library and get Cats Cradle, by Curt Voneguit. It's a great book.
