The Book of Common Birds

Life is not a narrative. Hah, says who? Not the brain, that's for sure. It won't believe you. It will just go on making connections, drawing conclusions, telling stories, slicing, spinning, weaving, welding. That's when it's not dreaming . . . and slicing, and spinning, and weaving, and . . .

First of an Ornis Birdwatcher trilogy.
