Max, a talking parrot with clipped wings, is a charming and deft observer of the human condition. Because of their histories, Jani and Francisco cannot fly either. The three of them unlock their denials of past injustice and it sets them free, as zany characters come and go from their art and weaving studios on volcanic Lake Chapala in Mexico's central highlands. Three in a Cage speaks of the perils of illegal immigration, of bird smugglers, of mental illness, of running an art gallery, being young, becoming old, and the courage it takes to be different. This is a personal and touching real-life story of survival, injustice, love and rebirth. The recounting of Max, Jani and Francisco's histories are stark and poignant delivered with insight and humor. This book will touch your heart
