Hardback. Condición: Good. The Mating Call of the Racket-Tailed Drongo by Michael Tobert (Luath Press, 2007) ISBN: 9781906307066 Condition: Good (in the Crappy Old Books grading system, that means: the cover is still clinging on with admirable loyalty, the pages are all present and accounted for, and the whole thing has that fai…ntly adventurous look of a book that may once have been read on a train, in a café, or perhaps while pretending to be interested in birdsong in the back garden). The title alone ? The Mating Call of the Racket-Tailed Drongo ? sounds like something between an Attenborough documentary and a lost Monty Python sketch. But Michael Tobert isn?t writing a field guide here. He?s giving us a novel that flaps, swoops, and dive-bombs through human folly, romance, and the curious intersections of ordinary life and extraordinary metaphor. The drongo, for those not in the ornithological know, is a real bird with a flair for mimicry and an unforgettable tail. Much like the book itself, it imitates things you think you recognise and then suddenly turns into something else entirely. It?s wry, it?s sharp, it?s got that ?small press gem? energy ? the sort of novel you stumble across and then wonder why everyone else is still reading the same three thrillers from the airport chart. Tobert manages to smuggle in wit, wisdom, and the occasional philosophical feather without ever taking himself too seriously. Our copy is rated Good , which means it has survived its first flight and is ready for a second reader to take it on. The pages may show the faintest signs of previous perching, but nothing that would stop you from enjoying the full plumage of the prose. If you?ve ever thought that literature could use more drongos (both avian and human varieties), or if you just like your novels with a side of playful eccentricity, then this is the book for you. It?s rare, it?s quirky, it?s a little bit niche ? just like the bird it?s named after. Perfect for: lovers of oddball fiction, amateur birdwatchers who secretly prefer novels to binoculars, and anyone whose shelves already groan under the weight of ?serious? literature and could use a dash of racket-tailed mischief.
