They are also notorious thieves, and this one quickly steals his heart. By the time the creature develops shiny black feathers that inspire the name Benzene, Charlie and the bird have forged an unbreakable bond. While caring for Benzene, Charlie learns his biological father, an eccentric British poet named Heathcote Williams who vanished when Charlie was six months old, is ill. As he grapples with Heathcote's abandonment, Charlie comes across one of his poems, in which Heathcote describes how an impish young jackdaw fell from its nest and captured his affection. Over time, Benzene helps Charlie unravel his fears about repeating the past--and embrace the role of father himself. A bird falls, a father dies, a child is born. Featherhood is the unforgettable story of a love affair between a man and a bird. It is also a beautiful and affecting memoir about childhood and parenthood, captivity and freedom, grief and love"--from publisher's website.   Copy/Holding information Location Collection Call No. Status   Hanapepe Public Library Adult Nonfiction 598 Gi Checked In Add Copy to MyList Hawaii State Library Business, Science & Technology 598 Gi Checked In Add Copy to MyList Hilo Public Library Adult Nonfiction 598 Gilmour Checked In Add Copy to MyList Makawao Public Library Adult Nonfiction 598 Gi Checked In Add Copy to MyList Mililani Public Library Adult Nonfiction 598 Gi Checked In Add Copy to MyList
