Lilian Jackson Braun Quote
Enchanté! said Qwilleran, bending low over her hand in a courtly gesture. Then he drew from his pocket a perfect Bosc pear with bronze skin and long, curved stem, offering it in the palm of his hand like a jewel-encrusted Fabergé bauble. The perfect complement for your beautiful apartment, Mademoiselle. The Countess was a trifle slow in responding. How charming . . . Please be seated . . . Ferdinand, you may bring the tea tray. She seated herself gracefully on an overstuffed sofa in front of the tortoiseshell tea table. I trust you are well, Mary?

Lilian Jackson Braun (June 20, 1913 – June 4, 2011) was an American writer known for her light-hearted series of The Cat Who... mystery novels. The Cat Who books features newspaper journalist Jim Qwilleran and his two Siamese cats, Koko (short for Kao K'o Kung) and Yum Yum, first in an unnamed midwestern American city and then in the fictitious small town of Pickax located in Moose County "400 miles north of everywhere".
