A book about rabbits that refuses to be a children's book. Adams follows a warren of exiles across fields most of us only glance at from a car window, and he makes their journey feel as consequential as any human migration. The prose is plain, almost reportorial, which makes the violence and tenderness land harder. This is a thick paperback, the kind that develops a soft spine from being carried in a bag. The rabbits worry about predators, weather, and leadership—the same things that keep everyone awake at night, only with more fur and better ears. For readers who understand that heroism often looks like continuing to move forward when you would rather stay put.
