THESE ARE ARISTOCRATS, but cats from every walk of life were photographed by Jan Styczynski for his “Cats in Camera,” published by Andre Deutsch. As Beverley Nichols says in a preface, these pictures from Poland, photographed by a Pole, show that cats are the same the world over, as independent and graceful as the music of Chopin. The book shows proud eats, alley cats, loving eats, angry cats, a Cleopatra on the prowl, a huffy old cat picking his way resentfully through the snow. The kitten looking impassively through innocent staring eyes is there, and so is the kitten at the moment when it is all tiger. Indeed, Mr Styczynski seems to have captured every conceivable cat in every conceivable mood for his book.
