PRAISE FOR HELEN BROWN 'Even non cat-lovers will be moved.' -- Good Housekeeping, UK 'A buoyant tale, heartfelt and open.' -- Booklist, US 'A warm, poignant tale about the sheer force of a cat's personality and the joy and healing it can bring.' -- Australian Women's Weekly Having survived a brush with cancer, Helen Brown, happily married and with three grown children, took stock of her comfortable suburban life and found it wanting. So when she was invited to visit New York, the city that never sleeps, she seized the day and accepted. Perhaps, she mused, she might never return. There was catch, however: would she foster a homeless cat during her stay? Visualising a dozy, sweet-natured snuggler called Mavis, Helen agreed. But the cat she met in the Manhattan shelter was anything but dozy. Instead, Bono, as he'd been named, was wide-eyed and unpredictable, a bundle of nervous energy with a feisty attitude and punk haircut to boot. After a shaky start, Helen and Bono began to get to know each other. And, as winter turned to spring, cat and woman explored new beginnings and past heartache, only to discover that, in the end, home is where the heart is, wherever that may be. In the tradition of Helen Brown's international bestseller Cleo and based on her enormously popular Huffington Post blog, Bono is a funny, tender and insightful story about life, love and recovery -- and a rock-star rescue cat with a big heart.
