Gallico's Thomasina Blend of Fantasy and Evil
A review of Paul Gallico's Thomasina set in Scotland, centering on a tiger-striped cat believed to haunt a tomb and its impact on a town dominated by a stern veterinarian and a faithful clergyman. The tale intertwines magical healing in a forest hut with dark passions and ethical conflict, suggesting it may be Gallico's best work.
