Fifteen Dogs by André Alexis

dark reflective sad medium-paced

4.0

Fifteen Dogs is definitely a a bit is a depressing read, but I thought it was worthwhile. I described it to my father as “a cross between Animal Farm and The Lord of the Flies”.  I liked the framing of the bet between the gods, especially given the frivolous nature of the wager — it reminded me of the biblical story of Job, or the movie Trading Places.
