BESTSELLER - The heartfelt, unforgettable story of how one man found his life's work--and true love--among a gang of wild parrots roosting in San Francisco. The basis for the award-winning documentary!
"A healthy dose of inspiration . . . the perfect read for anybody who believes that success means more than a corner office."--
Elle
Mark Bittner was down on his luck. He'd gone to San Francisco at the age of twenty-one to take a stab at a music career, but he hadn't had much success. After many years as an odd-jobber in the area, he accepted work as a housekeeper for an elderly woman. The gig came with a rent-free studio apartment on the city's famed Telegraph Hill, where he made a magical discovery: a flock of brilliantly colored wild parrots. In
The Wild Parrots of Telegraph Hill
, Bittner recounts how he became fascinated by the birds and patiently developed friendships with them that would last more than six years. When a documentary filmmaker comes along to capture the phenomenon on film, the story takes a surprising turn, and Bittner's life truly takes flight.
