Animals and celebrities share unusual relationships in these hilarious satirical stories by an awardwinning contemporary writer.Lions, Komodo dragons, dogs, monkeys, and pheasantsall have shared spotlights and tabloid headlines with celebrities such as Sharon Stone, Thomas Edison, and David Hasselhoff. Millet hilariously tweaks these unholy communions to run a stake through the heart of our fascination with famous people and pop culture in a wildly inventive collection of stories that evoke the spectrum of human feeling and also its limits (Publishers Weekly, Starred Review).While in so much fiction animals exist as symbols of good and evil or as author standins, they represent nothing but themselves in Millet's ruthlessly lucid prose. Implacable in their actions, the animals in Millets spiraling fictional riffs and flounces show up their humans as bloated with foolishness yet curiously vulnerable, as in a tourdeforce, Kabbalahinfused interior monologue by Madonna after she shoots a pheasant on her Scottish estate. Millet treads newly imaginative territory with these charismatic tales.These incredibly crafted stories, with their rare intelligence, humor, and empathy, describe the furious collision of nature and science, man and animal, everyday citizen and celebrity, fact and fiction. Lydia Millets writing sparkles with urgent brilliance. Joe Meno
