I bought this second hand, no idea why, never heard of it and had no expectations. I am in tears after finishing it. This book was better than any fable has a right to be. It was beautifully emotional all the way through.

this book reads like a fable - how the author manages to do that i have no idea. the hen who dreamed she could fly is darker - or rather, more realistic - than i expected, and though i feel like there should've been at least a lil more happy moments, i like that it's able to somehow make me feel emotionally affected at times, and how it doesnt cut corners.
