Holy Cow (häftad, eng)

Holy Cow by David Duchovny is a comic delight that will thrill fans of Jasper Fforde and Ben Aaronovitch. And anyone who enjoys a witty wisecrack in a novel.

Elsie Bovary is a cow and a pretty happy one at that. Until one night, Elsie sneaks out of the pasture and finds herself drawn to the farmhouseThrough the window, she sees the farmer''s family gathered around a bright Box God - and what the Box God reveals about something called an ''industrial meat farm'' shakes Elsie''s understanding of her world to its core.

The only solution? To escape to a better, safer worldAnd so a motley crew is formed: Elsie; Shalom, a grumpy pig who''s recently converted to Judaism; and Tom, a suave turkey who can''t fly, but can work an iPhone with his beak. Toting stolen passports and slapdash human disguises, they head for the airport ...

Elsie is a wise-cracking, slyly witty narrator; Tom dispenses psychiatric advice in a fake German accent; and Shalom ends up unexpectedly uniting Israelis and PalestiniansDavid Duchovny''s charismatic creatures point the way toward a mutual understanding and acceptance the world desperately needs.
