The title of the book is the title of one of the many short stories in this book. The author made everything around us talk. Not only animals are able to talk, things are able to talk too. The walls can talk as cats can do; the river can talk as bird can do. At the end of each story, a precious lesson can be deduced. Behind the simplicity and the poetism, deepness is very remarkable. Materials have gained souls, animals have gained sageness. Solids, animals and human beings are equal. They can discuss easily with no difference or superiority for human beings on the other creatures or things. At the contrary, things are sometimes more sage than human beings and what is important is the end of the story. This end is in most of the cases a solution, a moral or an advice.
