A story about flying the nest, birdsong, and growing up, Man Covets Birds creates an enveloping world of prose, live music, melancholia and sunshine.
Let’s tell you the tale of this boy; a boy who wakes up one morning to find that he has grown up. Despite recognising the man in the mirror, his parents and his town have no idea who he is. With no chance but to start a new life, he embarks on a journey into a strange, grown-up city full of machines and peculiar, lonely people. We could finish telling you the story, but that would be cheating.
