Afternoon Play: The Chicken Woman

BBC Radio 4
on BBC Radio 4 FM

By Eryl Maynard.
A tender and wry tale of chickens. The chickens first enter a woman's life as she and her husband strive for children. Though she defends her "girls" against the fox, nurses them into health and comforts them in her bed, she is adamant that she isn't obsessed. But the neighbours have another view.
