Transport yourself to a small French farm, and immerse yourself in the lives of two chickens, each with a past that still haunts, a taciturn farmer with no future he sees, and an ancient tree that stands moribund, firm, and wondrous.
A fairy tale for adults – an enchanting exploration of meaning in the burden of time, the possible in dreams, the lessons of silence, the clarity of love, and the miraculous in life.
Told as fable and as fact, the story is written in the beloved tradition of the imagined, oral lore from a long-lost age in Southwest France.

“There is a fear in the bending of the trees. It is the fear of the creature faced with change and transformation.”
-- Max Picard
"The passage of time and the resurrection possible through the message of silence have never been so keenly portrayed."
