OverviewSloane Tanen's irresistible chickens are back. Join these fluffy, yellow, surprisingly human chick - 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.
