THE FEAST OF THE FLYING COW...AND OTHER STORIES OF WAR tells the story of Audrey, a Paris Hilton-style socialite turned relief worker, who is a fish out of water in a war-torn nation where she is determined to award a free feast and a celebrity-style photo shoot to the besieged family of an impoverished peasant woman, Anya Andonov.
