The Autobiography of an Infinite Being or How I Turned into a Bird on My 80th Birthday - by Adrienne H Lee (Paperback)

About the Book

While The Autobiography of an Infinite Being or How I Turned into a Bird on my 80th Birthday presents as modern myth, the author uses her own trauma story to illustrate the blurred line between fantasy and reality.

Book Synopsis

Stories have immense power.

When Ailith wakes up on her 80^th birthday to discover three crane toes where her human foot used to be, she knows she doesn't have much time left. Ailith is an Infinite Being and her human experience is quickly coming to an end. In a race against the clock, she sets out to record the fantastic, and seemingly unbelievable, stories from her human iteration before her transition into bird form is complete. Ailith's strange life includes tales of vampires and werewolves, wizards and mystics, and even a talking dog. But is it real or fantasy?

As Ailith reflects on her existence in human form to share the lessons she's learned, it would be easy to say her life was like a fairy tale... but is there something more to Ailith's story?
