In this lovely, unconventional, often funny memoir, we meet a separated Catherine Goldhammer forced by circumstance to move from their comfortable home of the affluent New England suburb of her daughter's childhood into a new and more rustic life by the sea. The promise of pet chickens is the only joy Catherine can think of to cheer up her daughter, who throws herself into chicken care. Catherine almost matches her daughter’s zeal with her determination to make their new life work, and so, her life starts to slowly shift from chaos to grace. This book is an unforgettable lesson in hope, in starting over and highlights all the positive and surprising things that difficult changes can bring.
