Midnight Kittens by Dodie Smith
In his autobiographical novel Dusk Recitals, Ghana-born author Fred McBagonluri delivers the startlingly rich and compelling story of one boy and the infinite courage and confidence he musters to break free from a life of famine and hardship. Through unparalleled determination and a keen intellect, he finds his way to America, where he creates for himself a life of learning and, in the end, international respect as a leading scientist. In this poetic and evocative novel, the author has delivered a lyrical tale that lingers in the mind and heart long after the final page is read.
Dodie (Dorothy) Smith was born in 1896 in Northern England. Although she studied drama, she turned her talents to writing, successfully submitting a screenplay to a silent movie company and writing the script for Autumn Crocus, which opened in 1931 to rave reviews. In 1934, Dodie's husband Alec brought home a Dalmatian puppy named Pongo, a gift that would eventually inspire her to write on of the greatest works of literature today.
