Shabby en het wezen van de regenboog
Shabby and the essence of the rainbow...
This book, my first born, about a cat from another dimension that finds herself on the roof of a little city (een statdje in Limburg) – and the adventure she takes, with a rainbow boy, a circus elephant, a cat addicted to milk with existential fears, a statue in love with a river, chickens in a tanning saloon… and so on. A commentary on the multicultural and multidimensional society, from the eyes of a new-arrival – a cat from somewhere else… (a bit of me in there – I guess.)
