This is a redesigned version of the story (told in verse)"Dog" from Shaun Tan's excellent Tales from the Inner City. From the Afterword: "The relationship between dogs and humans is unlike that of any other. There are perhaps few inter-species friendships so epic and transforming, spanning some 15,000 years, enduring the vagaries of history, the rise and fall of countless societies, shaping each in turn. Every time I see people walking their dogs at my local park, I never cease to be heartened by the endurance and affection of this bond, its strangeness, its apparent naturalness." Beautiful book. Format: Mini hardback.
