Dogs

• Broschiertes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

The dogs of DOGS sing many "Songs of Myself." The book is by turns witty, sad, joyful, lyrical, angry, and moving. There are as many moods as there are dogs. And what a dandy love affair in the midst of it all! Each dog-poem is accompanied by a drawing managing to be both whimsical and accurate. But are these truly dogs, or all of us in disguise?
