"A wild romp with a sneaky message, Barn 8 wonders what it means to engage in protest – and how far you have to go to actually get anything to change. Our heroes: two USDA egg auditors, Janey and Cleveland. Their mission: Liberate a million chickens from an Iowa farm. High jinks and sly social commentary ensue. Also, there’s a chapter told from the point of view of a nonconformist chicken that should tell you everything you need to know about this sharply absurdist heist novel."
