Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:
Bird Eat Bird, Katrina Best's first book of short stories,is a funny, smart, offbeat, and insightful collection thatexplores themes that are equally poignant and hilarious:a middle-aged Cockfosters housewife decides totravel to Albuquerque in search of enlightenment; athirty-year-old woman who still lives at home anticipatesthe experience of a third date; a teenaged vegetariansupermarket cashier struggles to scan a packageof offal; an inscrutable pelican in a crowded Londonpark decides to try something different for dinner.These artful stories are tinged with social commentaryand reflect their author in that they featurecharacters and sensibilities from both Britain andCanada.
