Beschreibung

<p>Masterfully turning the rules of folklore and fable on their head, <em>The Bridegroom Was a Dog i</em>s a disarming and unforgettable modern classic. Its initial publication in 1998 garnered admiration from <em>The New Yorker</em>, which praised it as a "fast-moving, mysteriously compelling tale that has the dream quality of Kafka."</p><p><em>The Bridegroom Was a Dog</em> begins with a schoolteacher telling a fable to her students. In the fable, a princess promises her hand in marriage to a dog that has licked her bottom clean. The story takes an even stranger twist when that very dog appears to the schoolteacher in real life as a doglike man. A romantic - and sexual - courtship develops, much to the chagrin of her friends, who have suspicions about the man's identity.</p>
