Book ID/图书代码： 12844006B02157

English Summary/英文概要： A zoo worker, cautiously washing down Marysue the elephant, considers the strange, grim fragments he’s heard of his co-workers’ lives. Giraffes demand better living conditions and stage a mock group suicide. A girl escapes her repressive finishing school to find freedom with the monkeys in the African jungle. Snake or dog, buffalo, cat or turkey, each animal in Hannah Tinti’s brilliant, darkly comic collection holds up a disturbing mirror to the human beings around it.
