Robert Isaacs has survived an eventful life. He has escaped an angry hippo in the Okavango Delta, dodged tear gas on the Mount of Olives, roasted marshmallows over cooling lava in the Guatemalan highlands, and been run over by a boat off the west coast of Australia. In his youth he supported himself as a juggler and unicyclist on the streets of San Francisco before turning to music; over the course of thirty years he conducted everywhere from Carnegie Hall to the Cook Islands, released a dozen CDs, and earned a Grammy nomination. It's Hard to Be an Animal is his first novel.
""Any book that starts with a cursing warbler is the right book for me! I loved our main (human) character Henry and all his anxieties, and I loved free-spirited Molly, his love interest....not to mention the supporting cast of talking animals. Wild, weird, and super fun. I loved it."" --Annie Hartnett, bestselling author of The Road to Tender Hearts ""Once in a while you pick up a debut that is so singular, inventive and alive you know instantly that you're going to read everything from that author in the future. Well, meet Robert Isaacs, your new auto-buy author. Let's be his biggest fans together."" --Steven Rowley, New York Times bestselling author ""An uplifting, funny, original, and soulful novel! Through his wise and wonderful characters (some two-legged, some four, a few birds and a pair of deeply emotional beta fish), Isaacs has written a story that celebrates goodness, true love, and the magic of New York City. Perfect for fans of Shelby van Pelt's Remarkably Bright Creatures.""--Amy Poeppel, author of The Sweet Spot
