Dear Librarian, STILL LIFE WITH CHICKENS is a book for your readers who love Anne Tyler, Elizabeth Berg, and Francis Mayes. It is the story of a year in my life when, newly single, I moved myself, my twelve-year-old daughter, my dog, and a flock of tiny chickens from the affluent town of my daughter’s childhood to a rundown cottage in an eccentric town by the sea. Helped along by a colorful cast of family, friends, and neighbors, I embarked on a year in which I sold one house, bought another, moved, rebuilt, raised my daughter, and grappled with the sometimes mind-boggling needs of six enigmatic chickens. And lived to tell the tale! STILL LIFE WITH CHICKENS is a book for anyone who would enjoy a bittersweet, yet light-hearted, memoir about hope and new beginnings. Best wishes, Catherine Goldhammer
