Description
A Dog's Head by Jean Dutourd is a poignant and witty tale of self-discovery. Born with the head of a spaniel, Edmund Du Chaillu faces a life of teasing and ridicule from his peers.
With biting wit and a keen eye for satire, Dutourd presents a story that explores fundamental problems of human existence. This is a tale of trials and joys, as Edmund searches for a normal life of worth and love.
A beautifully crafted work of magical realism, A Dog's Head is a worthwhile read for those who appreciate the art of subtle storytelling and the power of prose to convey profound truths.
