Sloane Tanen's irresistible chickens are back. Join these fluffy, yellow, surprisingly human chicks - who made their first appearance in Tanen's hit, "Bitter with Baggage Seeks Same" - as they tell a new set of stories in their exquisitely crafted miniature settings. Whether playing the online dating game, trying couples' therapy, dealing with uncooperative children, discovering the melancholy of middle age, dreaming of a better life, or finally grasping the golden (or at least bronze) ring, these ingenious scenes of everyday troubles and triumphs are as painfully recognizable as they are hilarious. Clever, charming, and endlessly entertaining, "Going for the Bronze" is a brilliant follow-up to a wholly unique bestseller.
Sloane Tanen is the author of the bestselling Bitter with Baggage Seeks Same: The Life and Times of Some Chickens and the children's book Where Is Coco Going? She's a painter whose work has been exhibited in a number of shows that can be found in private and corporate collections in Manhattan, Boston, San Francisco, and Los Angeles. She received her B.A. from Sarah Lawrence College and holds graduate degrees in literary theory from NYU and in art history from Columbia University. Sloane lives with her husband in New York City.
