What can I say about Catherine Chidgey? She’s a masterful and insightful writer who can immerse her readers in worlds we’d never imagined.
In The Axeman’s Carnival, Chidgey’s narrator is a domesticated magpie named Tama, whose keen observations of the human world captivated me and kept me turning pages into the wee hours each night. I dreamed about magpies after I turned off my bedside lamp. I was both satisfied and sad when I reached the final page.
I highly recommend this book, and every other book by this author.
