Content Warnings

Graphic: Animal death, Death, Violence, Blood, and Injury/Injury detail

Moderate: Confinement, Excrement, and War

Minor: Miscarriage and Pregnancy

Every character of any significance in the book is a rabbit (or bird), so these are the best-fit content warnings. Pregnancy loss, for example, does not happen in the same way for rabbits as for humans (

reabsorption back into the body

) so may be less distressing for some readers

It has been decades since I watched the terrifying movie, but still I kept this haunting bit of horror floating in the back of my mind all through the much less frightening novel. And, surprise, it wasn't scary at all. It was wonderful.
