Admin History | Written in 1988 and first published by Chatto and Windus in 1990, The Cat Sanctuary is set on Bodmin Moor, inspired by the surroundings of Gale's then home in Camelford. Aware that all his novels until then had featured gay men and in response to s critic's accusations of misogyny in Little Bits of Baby, Gale completed a narrative which is nearly entirely focused on female characters. |
