An edition of twenty handmade poetry booklets. The poems are made up of fragments of text gathered from the online forum fulglepraten.no. Fuglepraten roughly translates from Norwegian to "bird talk" in English. Gåsehud translates to goose bumps, which in this case refers booth to the skin of a plucked goose or the phenomenon of humans getting goosebumps which refers to the development of bumps on the skin caused by an experience out of the ordinary or just the sensation of being cold.
