The twentieth anniversary of a postmodern classic, blending the gothic novel with bleedingedge science fiction, by the author of King NyxAfter a century of cruel experimentation, a haunted race of genetically and biomechanically uplifted canines are created by the followers of a mad nineteenthcentury Prussian surgeon. Possessing human intelligence, speaking human language, fitted with prosthetic hands, and walking upright on their hind legs, the monster dogs are intended to be super soldiers. Rebelling against their masters, however, and plundering the isolated village where they were created, the now wealthy dogs make their way to New York, where they befriend the young NYU student Cleo Pira andacting like Victorian aristocratsbecome reluctant celebrities.Unable to reproduce, doomed to watch their race become extinct, the highly cultured dogs want no more than to live in peace and be accepted by contemporary society. Little do they suspect, however, that the real tragedy of their brief existence is only now beginning.Told through a variety of documentsdiaries, newspaper clippings, articles for Vanity Fair, and even a portion of an opera librettoKirsten Bakiss Lives of the Monster Dogs uses its sciencefictional premise to launch a surprisingly emotional exploration of the great themes: love, death, and the limits of compassion. A contemporary classic, this edition features a new introduction by Jeff VanderMeer.
