- Summary:
- "These Birds of Temptation is a queer refrain, populated with both acoustical lines of flight and the sorrows of captivity, wherein the reader-as-exhibition-viewer learns that the adventure of ornithology is as preoccupied with the evolutionary meaning of allopreening among avifauna as it is with their taxonomical domination. This erratic ensemble of contributions creates a murmuration of minor ornithologies, including contributions on feathers, flight, song, loss, escape, and evasion, as well as a series of object lessons, poetic visions, short stories, and theoretical reflections."-- provided by distributor.
