“Etre the Cow is one of the most important books written in a generation. Etre’s fight for freedom and dignity is a fight for life itself. Sean Kenniff’s Etre The Cow depicts a very human struggle– and it’s a story I won’t soon forget.
“When night comes My Cow, Bull Calf, and all the other cows sleep, but I cannot. In the dark I wander and listen to the new cows cry out. Each cow has a different hunger, and I’ve weathered each one the same. They are simple hungers for simple appetites. But none of these cows hunger like I hunger, I think. I am the pasture inside the pasture, and the only cow here truly starving.” – Chapter 7
