By using animals as allegorical figures, Lemonnier delves deep into the human psyche, inviting readers to contemplate their own primal instincts and desires. Each story is a thought-provoking exploration of the boundaries between civilization and instinct, reason and passion. Camille Lemonnier, a Belgian author and art critic, was known for his keen observations of society and human psychology. His background in the arts and literature inspired him to create 'Birds and Beasts' as a reflection of the human condition.
