Anito Reverbero was raised by his grandmother in a house full of farm chickens. These birds are their only way to survive the famine that plagues the remote island they inhabit.

Tired of dealing with the darkness and filth that surrounds him; Anito Reverbero decides to leave one morning in search of new horizons. During that unexpected trip he discovers that life far from his family can become cruel and threatening, when he has to face some truly fearsome creatures: the macabre chickens.

This scary story is a surreal parable, full of symbols that allude to the hostility of certain realities, while helping us reflect on the price of dreams, the consequences of migration, and the love of family. It fosters values such as leadership, solidarity, the power of decision, the sense of adventure, and the inventiveness to transform our own lives.

Inspired by real events, with autobiographical details, sparks of humor and a little imagination.

This is the first book in a series of stories starring Anito Reverbero, with which the author wishes to celebrate the tradition of Halloween. This story is also a tribute to the films The Birds (1963) by Alfred Hitchcock and The Way Home (2002) by the South Korean director Lee Jeong-hyang.
