Description

Toronto, ON: Coach House Books, 2015. Paperback. Very Good. Clean, tight, unmarked; light crease at bottom inside corner of cover; otherwise as new; appears unread; A bet between the gods Hermes and Apollo leads them to grant human consciousness and language to a group of dogs who are overnighting at a veterinary clinic. Suddenly capable of more complex thought, the pack is torn between those who resist the new ways of thinking preferring the old dog ways, and those who embrace the change. The gods watch from above as the dogs venture into their newly unfamiliar world, as they become divided among themselves, each struggles with new thoughts and feelings.
