Description
Summary:Cat people: Irena Dubrovna, a beautiful and mysterious Serbian-born fashion artist living in New York City, falls in love with and marries average-Joe American Oliver Reed. Their marriage suffers though, as Irena believes that she suffers from an ancient curse- whenever emotionally aroused, she will turn into a panther and kill.
The curse of the cat people: Amy, the young daughter of Oliver and Alice Reed, has trouble differentiating fantasy from reality, and as a result has no friends. She makes an imaginary friend though, her father's dead first wife Irena. At about the same time, she befriends Julia Farren, an aging reclusive actress who is alienated from her own daughter Barbara. A mostly unrelated sequel to Cat people.
