内容简介Humiliated by his hoofed legs, the flies on his haunches, and the grass in his mouth, a bull named Etre tells his tender and thought-provoking story about the brutal insignificance of cow life at Gorwell Farm. In a world where the line between disgrace and dignity is drawn by a pasture fence, Etre finds himself alone in his awareness and utterly powerless to change his circumstances. The farmer and his men control everything--herding the cows from pasture to pasture, raising the sun in the morning, and taking it down at night. Etre searches for understanding among the broads, bulls, and calves on the pasture, but finds none. On the best of days, Etre listens to the farmer's boy sing lullabies at the fence. He likes those songs and loves the boy. But the grasses thin as the seasons pass, the cows hunger, and Etre grows desperate. He is the only cow truly starving. When unknowingly allowing himself to be herded to the slaughterhouse, Etre is confronted by his horrific fate. Cows are killed one by one without mercy, hollowed out and hacked to pieces. Determined to fight for his life and for the life of his offspring, Bull Calf, he must break down the pasture fence and escape to the woods . . . and the freedom he is sure he'll find there. But first, Etre commits the unthinkable. . . .

媒体推荐Beautifully written and reminiscent of George Orwell's Animal Farm, tre the Cow is a poignant tale about pushing the limits of individual will and challenging destiny.
