A starling calling songs in the middle of the night, owls taking a young girl on a journey, a swan charm bracelet holding more meaning than it appears, a steampunk aircraft on a harrowing misadventure, parched sands where a roadrunner keeps a grieving man alive...

In this collection of short stories and poems-both adventurous and bittersweet-you'll find birds are everywhere. Whether mentioned outright or simply by themes of flight, hope, beauty, and freedom, this collection is for everyone who has ever had a dream or longs to spread wings of their own.
