You'll Catch Your Death by Hugh Hood

Animals of all kinds, from a lovesick hippopotamus to a valuable pair of Chelsea dogs make an appearance in Hugh Hood’s new collection of short stories You’ll Catch Your Death. But mostly one is aware of the birds. Mosaic renderings of peacocks and cranes, a cage of cruelly imprisoned pigeons, a lorikeet named Ronnie Reagan, a couple of stolen cockatoos and a bestselling book entitled Caring Parenting While Birding each play a role in these stories, along with a cast of eccentric bird lovers.
