If I'd opened The Dogs without seeing the cover or title, I would have assumed it was a mainstream novel about a college professor who experiences ennui and has an affair with a student. Here are a few typical quotes from the beginning.
Farrell's wife Hilary had pursued Bauer with the enthusiasm of a sportful porpoise.
He looked at her ass.
Sit on my face, Miss Lippman, and know the enamel reality of my teeth.
Then some dogs appear, thank God... or so I thought, until I was promptly flung into an extremely graphic dog sex scene which began with extremely graphic DOG WATERSPORTS. I have no idea where it ended, as I crammed the book into my airplane stuff holder and abandoned it there, hopefully to intrigue and then traumatize some curious flight attendant.
The Dogs
Of course this is disappointing to me that all four of the ridiculous books I found proved unreadable. Perhaps it is disappointing to you too. And so I am giving you all a very special offer!
If you mail me a ridiculous pulp novel, I will at least attempt to read it and report back on my attempt, IF you follow the rules:
1. It must be or at least promise to be entertaining. I think you know what I mean by that. Terrible improving books also qualify (i.e., books purporting to warn about the dangers of Advanced D&D, etc).
2. You must provide a bonus/incentive with the book, i.e., jerky, unusual candy, a pretty card, art, coffee, another book, etc.
3. I have a short attention span so you must do this quickly, before I lose interest or get caught up in something else.
4. Email me at Rphoenix2@gmail.com and I'll give you a mailing address.
