Après un parcours professionnel trop riche en déracinements de contrées du Grand Ouest de la France et de la proche Europe, l'auteur décrit l'univers changeant d'une chatte d'environ huit mois qu'il faudra apprivoiser. Sauvée d'un monde noir, elle a vécu des nuits isolées en campagne, loin des caresses. Son adoption en donnera le ton et la musique. Damien Dubois-Siobud mélange et confond le monde animal et le monde humain et retrace une partie renaissante ou douloureuse de sa propre vie, rythmée par les réconforts de ces animaux qui remplacent l'enfant qu'il n'a pas. Linou et Lila donnent toute la chaleur à cet univers confortable des chats et d'une sale de séjour à l'approche de l'hiver.Le monde du jouet, du commerce tel qu'il aurait pu être, du sentiment, de l'empathie et de la conviction s'assimilent sans faire dans le suspense, mais dans la poésie. Agrémenté d'humour comme d'observations, les personnages se côtoient et se frôlent comme cela se déroule au sein de ce foyer sans tumulte.Damien Dubois-Siobud a voulu rédiger un texte à l'image de sa santé, mûrie comme les gens authentiques de son département de naissance. Sa fin en soi est de faire que ce livre vous apprivoise pour toucher du doigt le doux poil du chat.

Die Prinzessin ist so schön wie störrisch. Was sie sich in den Kopf setzt, muss geschehen. So weist sie schnippisch den Prinzen zurück, der mit kostbaren Perlen um ihre Hand wirbt. »Jeder Tölpel kann mir solche Perlen schenken!

Dort herrscht ein garstiger Zwerg, der ihm das Bäumchen unter einer Bedingung überlässt: Nur wenn die Prinzessin wahrhaft liebt, kann es singen. Doch das Bäumchen bleibt stumm.
