Amanda Lear has lived many lives - muse and singer, painter and provocateur, an eternal sphinx wrapped in sequins. But behind the stage lights and the immortal smile, another tribe has always followed her: cats. Mysterious, elegant, anarchic. Her perfect doubles.
In this playful and insightful book, Christian Soleil slips into the half-shadow where celebrity meets mythology. He collects anecdotes, whispers, and shimmering memories to sketch a gallery of feline companions who padded through the artist's apartments, studios, and decades. Each cat becomes a mirror, revealing something of Lear's freedom, humour, and secret tenderness.
Part portrait, part fable, Amanda Lear's Cats is a celebration of eccentricity and affection - the story of a woman who reinvented herself endlessly, and the creatures who accompanied her through every metamorphosis. A small book with a velvet paw and a sharp sparkle, inviting the reader to curl up and purr along.
