Egg: A Dozen Ovatures [Audiobook]
English | ASIN: B0BW4XXX9B | 2023 | 6 hours and 19 minutes | 351 MB​

An unconventional history of the world's largest cellular workhorse, from chickens to penguins, from art to crime, and more. The egg is a paradox―both alive and not alive―and a symbol as old as culture itself. In this wide-ranging and delightful journey through its natural and cultural history, Lizzie Stark explores the egg's deep meanings, innumerable uses, and metabolic importance through a dozen dazzling specimens. From Mali to Finland, mythologies around the globe have invested the egg with powers of regeneration and fecundity, often ascribing the origin of the world to a cosmic egg. An oracle to Romans, fought over by Gold Rush gangs, used as the foundation of the Clown Egg Registry, and blasted into space, the egg has taken on larger proportions than, say, the ovum of an ostrich. Filled with colorful characters and fascinating morsels, Egg is playful, informative, and guarantees that you'll never take this delicate ovoid for granted again.
