About This Book

The story follows a novelist who is drawn into the uproarious schemes of an irrepressible old friend who has married and set up a chicken farm in the country. A string of comic mishaps, bungled ventures, eccentric visitors, and romantic entanglements forces the narrator into financial scrapes and social farce. Episodes alternate between gentle satire of provincial life and fast-paced slapstick, emphasizing loyalty, optimism, and the compounding absurdities of well-intentioned plans that repeatedly go wrong.
