Summary: "Cat Brushing, the provocative first book of stories by Jane Campbell, vigorously explores the sensual worlds of thirteen older women, unearthing their passions, libidinal appetites, integrity, and sense of self as they fight against prevalent misconceptions and stereotypes of the aging. Written in spikey, incisive prose, this alluring cast of characters overcomes the notion that elder women's behavior must be in some way monitored and controlled. Jane Campbell's timeless wisdom and dark wit inspires and challenges, shocks and comforts as she examines the inner lives of women who fight to lead the rest of their lives on their own terms"--
