Time Out New York
Sometimes, the oddest book will grab you, for no rational reason. Such is the case with "The Fairest Fowl: Portraits of Championship Chickens. Tamara Staples's "fashion-runway-style" shots of cocky, prancing specimens of poultry pulchritude are strangely... sexy. The accompanying text on the competition circuit and standards of perfection--"including plumage, combs and wattles--"is equally fascinating. Who knew?
Product Description
In irresistibly strange, undeniably beautiful portraits, photographer Tamara Staples celebrates the finely-feathered champions of the American poultry show circuit, the beauty pageant of the barnyard. Location and detail photography, quotes from poultry farmers, insights into the judging process, and an essay by Ira Glass of public radio's "This American Life" complement these high fashion photographs to provide a full appreciation for this most noble of birds. An introduction includes quotes by breeders, followed by an explanation of the poultry world's bible, The Standard of Perfection, including excerpted text and visual aids on judging, breeding, and characteristics from the feathers to wattles of the perfect fowl. 35 posed, full page portraits of exceptional chickens are accompanied by basic information on the breed. Black-and-white candid shots and an interview with Tamara Staples by NPR's Ira Glass provides an intimate look at the people behind these prize-winning chickens.
