Pressured to fulfil her mother's last request, Paule rediscovers pleasure and meaning in running the old family business. Yet, eager to bring something of herself to a family tradition, Paule embarks on increasingly intricate ways of helping the chickens to self-actualize before their deaths. She records the chickens' life stories, adding them to the labels that decorate the vacuum-packed meat sent off to market--an individual biography for every chicken. But not all runs smooth in her childhood village; Paule finds she has few friends and many enemies. She is forced to spread her wings, relocate her livestock, and oversee the construction of an urban farm of never-before-seen practices and proportions."-- $c Provided by publisher. 650 0 $a Poultry farms $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Inheritance and succession $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Death $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Grief $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Mothers $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Self-actualization (Psychology) $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Human-animal relationships $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Family-owned business enterprises $v Fiction. 650 7 $a Death. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00888613 650 7 $a Family-owned business enterprises. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00920575 650 7 $a Grief. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00947883 650 7 $a Human-animal relationships. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00963482 650 7 $a Inheritance and succession. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00973371 650 7 $a Mothers. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01026940 650 7 $a Poultry farms. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01741826 650 7 $a Self-actualization (Psychology) $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01111481 655 7 $a Fiction. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01423787 655 7 $a Fiction. $2 lcgft 941 $a 1 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20231117022925.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=F97A374A3D8C11EE8AE814B62EECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
