Did you ever read William Wharton's BIRDY? It makes you want to make love to a canary. Or maybe that's just me.

  There's something terribly interesting about all this, that I can't quite
  figure out. When I read Cockfighter, I was enthralled with the details of
  preparing the birds, and the statistics, all of it. As a total animal-lover I
  expected to be appalled. I almost want to see a fight, although I know I'd hate
  it. I don't know if my interest is due to Willeford's expertise in writing or
  the subject itself.
