Lives of the Monster Dogs - (FSG Classics) by Kirsten Bakis (Paperback)

Lives of the Monster Dogs is a thought-provoking and emotionally charged novel that explores the complex relationships between humans and animals.

This 20th anniversary edition features a new introduction by Jeff VanderMeer, highlighting the timelessness and relevance of Bakis's work.

The story follows a group of genetically and biomechanically uplifted canines, created by a mad nineteenth-century surgeon, as they navigate their existence in a world that often rejects them.

Through a variety of documents, including diaries, newspaper clippings, and an opera libretto, the novel delves into themes of love, death, and compassion.

With its unique blend of science fiction and gothic elements, Lives of the Monster Dogs is a contemporary classic that will resonate with readers long after they finish the last page.
