About The Book: **"Gay Neck, the Story of a Pigeon"** by Dhan Gopal Mukerji is a touching tale about a young Indian boy and his beloved pigeon, Gay Neck. Set in colonial India and later Europe during World War I, the story traces the bird’s journey from carefree youth to trained carrier pigeon. Through Gay Neck’s adventures—including encounters with hunters, hawks, and the horrors of war—the novel explores themes of fear, courage, healing, and the deep bond between humans and animals.
