Nives by Sacha Naspini

5.0

Pitch perfect and not at all what you'd expect from the blurb, which suggests a quirky story of a widow in the Italian countryside bringing a hen into the house to keep her company. In fact, the hen is the universe's excuse to put her back in touch with the town vet, from whence the wild ride begins. If it isn't adapted for the stage within the fortnight, I'll eat my hat.
