Show Description

Shep talks about two books he read by author Jean Dutourd - "A Dog's Head" and "Five A.M." Synopsis: Jean Dutourd's A Dog's Head is a wonderful piece of magical realism, reminiscent of Voltaire, orges and Kafka. With biting wit, Dutourd presents the story of Edmund Du Chaillu, a boy born, to his bourgeois parents's horror, with the head of a spaniel. Edmund must endure his school-mate's teasing as well as an urge to carry a newspaper in his mouth. This is the story of his life, trials, and joys as he searches for a normal life of worth and love.

Comments: Transferred from tape by Lowell Thelin

"Can you imagine 4,000 years passing, and you're not even a memory?
Think about it, friends. It's not just a possibility. It is a certainty." - Jean Shepherd - 1975
