Whether Boyle is breaking your heart or making you laugh, you just don t care because he is so darned good at it. San Francisco Chronicle
The fourteen stories gathered here display Boyle s imaginative muscle, emotional sensitivity, and astonishing range. There are whimsical tales, including Swept Away, which tells of a female ornithologist who falls in love on the blustery island of Unst, and The Kind Assassin, about a bored and loveless radio shock jock who sets the world record for most continuous hours without sleep and who may never sleep again. In the title story, a young man must contend with a vicious feral cat from Africa that he won in a bar bet. And in Dogology, a young woman in suburban New England becomes so obsessed with man s best friend that she begins to lose her own identity to a pack of strays.
Muscular, provocative, and blurring the boundaries between humans and nature, the funny and the shocking, Tooth and Claw is Boyle at his best.
