In England in 1725, a young woman named Mary Toft chased a rabbit through her fields. She was several weeks pregnant with her third child, and the family was hungry. She hoped to catch the rabbit and cook it, but it got away. Soon after, she went into labor and miscarried a rabbit. Over the course of the next four months Mary Toft gave birth 18 times to rabbits or pieces of rabbits. Two of the three prominent physicians who examined Mary Toft believed that her rabbit pregnancy was scientifically possible. Today, it just might be. And it certainly is in A Brief Narrative of an Extraordinary Birth of Rabbits, where characters live on the edge of the imagined and the real. Mare, a surrogate for her infertile sister Kitty, has just given birth to her first Rabbit. There will be 24 additional rabbits after this. How are we made? By whom?
