Editorial Reviews
Book Description
The peacocks are missing their tail feathers and all the fur has been shaved off the goat's front leg. In fact the whole farm looks as though it's about to topple down a hillside. But when the owner, a man on the verge of losing his own sight, starts describing the purest, pinkest sunsets ever seen, he convinces a divorced woman she's about to enter paradise. In this collection of short fiction, it's the animals who serve as the best role models. Whether it's a flock of alienated people taking flight from city rooftops, a woman using her horse training techniques to teach a man how to love her, or a cat turning senile that changes the lives of the people around him, these are stories about the subtle ways animals mold our existence, offering their silent answers to our misdirected attempts at life and love.
