An enchanting and darkly comic fable of human greed and nature, from the Man Booker Prize-winning author of Lincoln in the Bardo, exquisitely illustrated by Chelsea Cardinal

Fox 8 has always been curious, and a bit of a daydreamer. And, by hiding outside houses at dusk and listening to children 's bedtime stories, he has learned to speak Yuman '.
The power of words and the stories built from them is intoxicating for a fox with a poetic soul, but there is danjur ' on the horizon- a new shopping mall is being built, cutting off his pack 's food supply. To save himself and his fellow foxes, Fox 8 will have to set out on a harrowing quest from the wilds of nature deep into the dark heart of suburbia.
