Suppose Apollo and Hermes chose to wager on whether granting human intelligence to dogs would result in their being as unhappy as humans, and proceeded to do just that to fifteen kennel dogs. What follows is a dark fable about power and reactionary politics, a well-written immersion into the sentience of dogs and a meditation on language and knowledge. Suprisingly violent. In fact, it could have more helpfully (and thus avoidably) been titled The Awful Deaths of Fifteen Dogs.
