What Did I Do Wrong? Fanny Howe

Fiction. Episodic and picaresque, Fanny Howe's novella WHAT DID I DO WRONG? tells the story of a revolutionary mutt's journey through the kennels, parks, and suburban waste spaces around Boston in search of true freedom. This dog offers a firsthand account of the cruelty meted out to both animals and forgotten members of human society. Like The Golden Ass, WHAT DID I DO WRONG?takes on moral and spiritual questions without abandoning earthly appetites. In a twist on the fabulous tradition established by Apuleius, we are urged not to maintain our humanity but rather to look for the dog within. Illustrated by Colleen McCallion.
