"Prisoned
Chickens, Poisoned Eggs: An Inside Look At The Modern Poultry
Industry."
Review by artist Dylan Ravenfox.

Karen
Davis's "Prisoned Chickens, Poisoned Eggs: An Inside Look at the Modern
Poultry Industry" exhibits an exquisite assemblage of well-researched
material
documented with scrutiny and care, compellingly supported by
compassionate,
direct, and immediate experience-visual, audible, somatic,
and olfactory-of the
conditions affecting the animals themselves. While
the writing is eloquent and,
at points, profoundly poetic, it is
nonetheless extremely difficult to read.
The atrocities it narrates pass
far beyond human understanding, even make one
want to stick one's head in
the oven.
