Author Talk: Tove Danovich
Date
Join Portland author Tove Danovich for a discussion of her book, Under the Henfluence: Inside the World of Backyard Chickens and the People Who Love Them. In Under the Henfluence, culture reporter Danovich explores the lives of these quirky, mysterious birds who stole her heart the moment her first box of chicks arrived at the post office. From a hatchery in Iowa to a chicken show in Ohio to a rooster rescue in Minnesota, Danovich interviews the people breeding, training, healing, and, most importantly, adoring chickens.
"A heartfelt account of raising pet hens. . . Anyone who’s mulled the possibility of setting up a backyard coop will find this the next best thing.” ―Publishers Weekly
Tove Danovich is a journalist and a finalist for the Oregon Book Awards. Her work has appeared in the New York Times, The Washington Post, Backyard Poultry Magazine, and many others.
