Animal Saints & Animal Sinners: The Haunted Lives of Nicolette Chickering

The Haunted Lives of Nicolette Chickering depicts a life sliced up like a cow in a Damien Hirst sculpture.

Nicolette Chickering is a hapless woman tossed hither and yon by fate — or the next best thing: Three writers/storytellers, each tackling different phases of her life with only the vaguest of gestures towards continuity. From the improbable circumstances of

Nicolette’s birth, to being able to commune with the dead, to a prison sentence for attempted murder, to a brief career as a nanny/poetess, to the equally improbable circumstances of her death, Bret Fetzer, Scot Augustson, and Kelleen Conway Blanchard treat their decidedly unheroic heroine like a badminton shuttlecock. Nicolette faces each new turn with glum practicality, doing her best to make the best of things...and discovering that her best is maybe not all that good.

Following in the traditions of Tristram Shandy, Gulliver, and Orlando, The Haunted Lives of Nicolette Chickering bounces from comic to creepy to an unholy fusion of both.
