Popis
This title is presented with a new introduction by Andrey Kurkov. A rich,
successful Moscow professor befriends a stray dog and attempts a scientific
first by transplanting into it the testicles and pituitary gland of a
recently deceased man. A distinctly worryingly human animal is now on the
loose, and the professor’s hitherto respectable life becomes a nightmare
beyond endurance. An absurd and superbly comic story, this classic novel
can also be read as a fierce parable of the Russian Revolution.
