43 Bin Street

by Livi Michael

Did you know that rather than being the annoying and dirty insects we think they are, flies have actually been looking after us humans for centuries? Nattie and Kiko are two of our saviours, driven out of their home at 43 Bin Street by the over-use of fly-spray and forced to move next door to live in the squalor (heaven for a fly) at Number 45.

 

As saving the human race from its own stupidity is of paramount importance, the dynamic duo are undeterred by potentially toxic chemicals and persevere in their quest to restore and maintain harmony in a troubled neighbourhood.

 

In this original and amusing look at life through the eyes of a fly, Livi Michael explores some very human experiences of love, conflict, acceptance and compromise.
