Description:Here, in R. L. Maizes’s “A Cat Called Grievous,” we find a familiar situation: a couple, unable to have children and growing bored with one another, adopt a cat and name it Grievous. Or, the cat adopts them, as it so often goes. People are fond of saying that “dogs have masters and cats have servants,” a statement that is mostly true, and, I will argue at the risk of revealing myself as a cat person, makes cats richer subjects for fiction. Dogs are loyal, and cats are indifferent. Give a cat an owner, and there is already a conflict. - Halimah Marcus About the Author: R.L. Maizes is the author of We Love Anderson Cooper, a short story collection, and Other People’s Pets, a novel, which are forthcoming from Celadon Books (Macmillan). Her stories have aired on NPR, and have appeared in the literary magazines Witness, Bellevue Literary Review, Slice, Blackbird, among others. Her essays have been published in The New York Times, The Washington Post, and elsewhere. Her cat, Arie, bears no resemblance to Grievous.
