Good evening, my name is Mr. Whiskers. Now I know what you're thinking. Mr. Whiskers doesn't sound like a suitable title for a human, well that's because i'm not a human. I am indeed, like the title of this novel suggests, a cat. I live with my human peasants and that 'thing' they call a dog. What you are reading is my diary, showing all of the horrors I have had to endure on this earth as the dominant species.

The title "The Diary Of Somebody In Particular" is a play on words, derived from The Diary Of A Nobody, written by W&G Grossmith which first appeared in Punch in 1892 It later published as a book, and quickly established itself as a classic. The Grossmith book and "The Diary Of Somebody In Particular", however, part company there. "The Diary Of Somebody In Particular" is not a staggered collection of diary entries, but is a story with a good old fashioned beggining, middle and end. Though the "diary" of a cat it doesn't avoid realities, and touches upon everything from loss and death (animal and human alike) to crime, success, fun times, and the hottananny which is student and bohemian life in the fictional Wychbury, as it blends seamlessly with all life around it. Wychbury is something of a melting-pot from drunks to shady women, mad butchers dogs to cat-tribe rivalry, creativity and destruction to tragedy and laugh-a-minute goings-on. All human (and some sub-human!) life is there. The whole thing is related and voiced by the principle character, Lillith, following her arrival with new owners, from where everything else takes off. Life has suddenly moved up a gear and become an education and a learning curve, and cats watch every twist and turn of the fun, tragedy and mayhem, as they, dogs and human-kind alike pursue their frivolities and dramas. The story is voiced not only by Lillith, but also other major characters so as to bring them to life. If you want something comic it's there, but occasionally if you want to be brought-up sharp and hide a tear, hopefully "The Diary Of Somebody In Particular" may just make you feel human as well. Even a stray dog with attitude would read this!
