WOE! SCREAM! MEOW! ...PURR? Join the hilarious and of course dramatic world of Linney the House Cat, as her webcomic antics are gathered into graphic novel for the very first time! This collection is perfect for cat lovers and Linney fans alike.

What if our cats could talk? Would they ask endless questions about why we haven't given them wet food...again? Would they scream greetings at the first sign of life before the sun even rises? Linney certainly will. 

Have you met Linney yet? If not, prepared to be blessed! Lucy Knisley's online Linney comics are collected for the very first time in this gifty hardcover featuring the internet sensation, Linney. With all-new comics, this collection shows us just how amazing, and what a true gift, all cats are.
★ "An amusing, heartfelt, and bittersweet read that will resonate deeply with pet lovers." —Kirkus Reviews, starred review

"Woe is a beautiful tribute....will be enjoyed by not only cat enthusiasts but also by ­readers who enjoy memoir comics with a bit of humor." —School Library Journal

"Linney fans and cat enthusiasts alike will laugh and cry in this cathartic comic collection." —The Bulletin

"Simultaneously heartbreaking and heartwarming, not to mention funny throughout, Knisley’s illustrations of life with a spoiled cat are relatable to anybody who has ever loved an animal." —Booklist

"[A] funny, touching saga that explores what it means to care for a beloved four-legged companion through thick and thin." —BookPage

"Nestled amidst the hilarity of cat antics is the emotional connection people have with their finicky little fur balls. Knisley's love for Linney is heartwarming and will likely have her fellow felinophiles snuggling their own kitties." —Shelf Awareness
Lucy Knisley is the critically acclaimed, award-winning, New York Times bestselling comics creator of Relish and Kid Gloves. She lives in Chicago with her husband and son.
