Reviews

Darkly funny and poignant.

Paula Hawkins, author of The Girl on the Train
Fans of Elizabeth Strout and Anne Tyler will devour it.Daily Mirror
Acutely observed . . . and the chickens provide metaphors for the world at large.New Yorker
Some novelists floodlight the world; Polzin uses a penlight to beautifully illuminate the least glamorous corners of a quotidian life . . . Her observation of the fragility and loveliness of daily life is so sharp and her commentary so droll, trenchant and precise, that the modest world she describes becomes almost numinous.Washington Post
