- Then for some reason the higher powers would not let us go and look at the kittens, the dear little blind kittens in the outhouse. […] Only after a dispute in which Joan threatened to go the way of Peter was "just a glimpse" conceded. And they were softer and squealier and warmer than anything one had ever imagined.
