Schappi - Anna Haifisch

In Schappi, Anna Haifisch blurs the boundaries between humans and animals. In these five collected short stories, carnivores and herbivores meet at a congress of the animals; we get to know a merciless, art-collecting lizard; and are introduced to dancing ostriches and a melancholy, meditating octopus. With singular humor and charm, and a brilliant eye for color, Haifisch tells of the struggle from the prairie to the drawing table, of self-imposed isolation and friendship. Schappi will shine from a bookshelf like a mad husky''s iris.
