Robert Lamb (1812-1872) was an English clergymen, author and journalist. He was born in 1812 at Hay Carr, Lancashire. He attended Oxford University, earned an M.A. in 1840, and entered holy orders. In 1849, he became the rector of St. Paul’s Church in Manchester. Lamb contributed articles to
Fraser’s Magazine as ‚A Manchester Man‘ which were collected and published as
Free Thoughts on Many Subjects (1866). He wrote a single work of fiction,
Yarndale: An Unsensational Story (1872), based on his observations of Manchester life. Poor health forced his resignation in 1871 and he died the following year.
The Lamb’s short story
The Battle of the Cats, which we propose to our readers today, eas published in 1863 on the magazine
Once a Week. It is an extraordinary story that tells us about animals, spirituality and the supernatural. A magical story, full of metaphors and moral and philosophical teachings. A story truly capable of surprising.
