Chapter Four: Tiger escapes/freed from zoo during WWII by warfare. Chapter describes Tiger's movement from zoo animal to wild animal. Villagers, psychically destroyed by war, are even more undone by the knowledge that up on a ridge above their homes is an animal that doesn't belong there and by their confusion as to what, if anything, should be done. Terrific chapter.
Excellent start . . . orphaned girl with a knack for chess, taught by janitor, harsh orphanage despite its courtly look.
