"[The Birds is] the story of a mad boy looked after by his elder sister who is clearly almost unable to bear the strain, but his world is all magical portents and signs, visits from birds who are friendly messengers, wonders, subtle encounters with people that might be seen by unmad people as ordinary. And I cannot forget a previous Vesaas novel, 'The Ice Palace,' as poetic, delicate, airy, as this one."Harvey, Bev is the author of 'Birds ' with ISBN 9780717257317 and ISBN 0717257312.
