Description
On Animals explores the complex relationships between humans and animals, a theme that has captivated philosophers, poets, and naturalists for centuries. Susan Orlean's own fascination with animal-human connections began at age six, when she wrote and illustrated a children's book about a pigeon.
In this collection of stories, Orlean delves into the lives of various creatures, from household pets to animals raised for food, and even those that could be our dinner companions. She shares her own experiences with keeping chickens in her backyard, as well as encounters with remarkable individuals who have formed unusual bonds with animals.
Through her engaging prose and meticulous research, Orlean celebrates the meaningful connections that exist between different species, highlighting the ways in which animals enrich our lives and our world.
