An internationally bestselling comic novel in which a man-with the help of a bunny-suddenly realizes what's important in life "Escapism at its best . . . Just pure fun." -NPR.org "Which of us has not had that wonderfully seditious idea: to play hooky for a while from life as we know it?" With these words from his foreword, Pico Iyer puts his finger on the exhilaratingly anarchic appeal of The Year of the Hare, a novel in the bestselling tradition of Watership Down, Jonathan Livingston Seagull, and Life of Pi. While out on assignment, a journalist hits a hare with his car. This small incident becomes life-changing: he decides to quit his job, leave his wife, sell his possessions, and spend a year wandering the wilds of Finland-with the bunny as his boon companion. What ensues is a series of comic misadventures, as everywhere they go-whether chased up a tree by dogs, or to a formal state dinner, or in pursuit of a bear across the Finnish border with Russia-they leave mayhem (and laughter!) in their wake.
