What can two cats teach us about being human?In this modern epistolary story, two cats, Rosemary and Gabriel, begin an unusual friendship that begins with letter-writing and blossoms into love. Gabriel, jealous of the way his owner toils over her laptop instead of scratching his ears, thinks such devices are silly. He can''t understand why his owner Janice spends all of her time typing. Who could she be writing so many emails to? When his curiosity takes hold, he makes a discovery that changes his world-Rosemary.When Rosemary agrees to correspond with Gabriel, he immediately begins to court her: he sends her poems and valentines, and pledges to come and see her in Toronto. As Rosemary and Gabriel open up to each other, they share a commentary about life that''s both witty and poignant and, of course, filled with unabashed professions of love. Written by Janice Moore Fuller and Janet Lewis, Rosemary and Gabriel is a heartfelt story about how we navigate friendship, romance, grief, and love-and everything in our hearts that makes us human.
