Om denne bog

''Fans of Elizabeth Strout and Anne Tyler will devour it.'' - Daily Mirror

Darkly witty, deeply moving – Jackie Polzin''s Brood is a startlingly original debut novel about motherhood, marriage and grief, full of sorrow, joy and unrelenting hope.

Over the course of a single year, our nameless narrator heroically tries to keep her small brood of four chickens alive despite the seemingly endless challenges that caring for another creature entails – and all the while struggling to confront her own recent loss. From the forty-below nights of a brutal Minnesota winter to a sweltering summer which brings a surprise tornado, she battles predators, bad luck, and the uncertainty of a future that may not look anything like the one she always imagined.

''Full of surprise, humor, grief, and wisdom.'' - Karen Joy Fowler, author of We Are All Completely Beside Ourselves

''The most vibrant and compelling slice of life I’ve been privy to in a great while.'' - Claire Lombardo, author of The Most Fun We Ever Had

''Splendidly unsentimental, quirky, witty, smart and a complete one-off.'' - Clare Chambers, author of Small Pleasures
