Recital of the Dog
Author: David Rabe
Publisher: Grove/Atlantic, Inc.
ISBN: 0802196926
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 400
Book Description
A successful artist shoots a dog harassing his cows and descends into madness in this dark novel by the Tony Award–winning author of Sticks and Bones. In classic works such as Hurlyburly and Streamers, David Rabe’s depictions of violence and the dark side of the human psyche have won him widespread acclaim. In Recital of the Dog, a painter who has left urban chaos for the country soon finds his hopes of tranquility shattered by a marauding intruder—a dog that torments his small herd of cows. Desperate to restore order to his world, the man shoots the dog, unwittingly unleashing a nightmare on himself. This is a tale of creation and destruction, crime and punishment, rife with insight and black comedy. Praise for Recital of the Dog “So primal, so dark and redeeming it should be considered taboo, and is therefore irresistible. . . . An extraordinary, powerful piece of literature.” —Thomas Moore, author of Care of the Soul “David Rabe has crafted an intense, strange and frightening nightmare. . . . There is violence and intensity and vividness that a reader feels as though inhabiting the mind of a madman.” —The Denver Post “Playwright Rabe’s first novel is a powerful, shocking portrait of a disintegrating psyche . . . fairly crackles with a dark, disturbing, often dazzling energy.” —Library Journal “A gifted prose writer of original vision . . . In both voice and structure, Recital of the Dog owes much both to Albert Camus and James M. Cain. . . . Rabe’s beautiful, tight, fluent prose renders the fragility of reality with enormous power and grace.” —San Francisco Chronicle

Dog Breaking for the Gun: The Most Expeditious, Certain and Easy Method, with Copious Notes on Shooting Sports
Author: Lieut -Gen W. N. Hutchinson
Publisher: Read Books Ltd
ISBN: 1447487206
Category : Pets
Languages : en
Pages : 410
Book Description
Originally published in 1848, this book was so well received by sportsmen and dog owners alike, that several more editions were published in ensuing years. All of these early editions are now very scarce and increasingly hard to find. VINTAGE DOG BOOKS has now republished the fifth, revised and enlarged edition of 1869, using the original text and engravings, as part of their CLASSIC BREED BOOK series. The author was a well respected dog breeder and trainer with a lifetime's experience of working dogs in the field. His book is still considered by many to be the finest work on gundog training ever written. The book's substantial three hundred and seventy two pages contain twenty three comprehensive, illustrated chapters: - Preliminary Observations. Qualifications, in Breaker and Dog. - Initiatory Lessons Indoors. Shooting Ponies. - Initiatory Lessons with Spaniels. - Retrievers. - Lessons Out of Doors. - First Lesson in September. Ranging. - Caution. Nature's Mysterious Influences. - Cunning of Age. Range of from Two to Six Dogs. - Pointing. - Vermin. -Bar, Leg Strap and Spike Collar. - Shooting Hares. - Hints to Purchasers. - Sheep Killing. - Anecdotes on Dogs on Service at Home. - Service Abroad. - Russian Setters. - Whistles, "Backing", Ranging, Runners. - Retrieving with Setters. - Bloodhounds. - Health. - Shooting. - Loading. - Trapping. - Vermin Control. - Pheasant Rearing. - Poachers. - Keepers. - Night Dogs etc. The book also contains many steel and wood engravings of dogs and sporting scenes. This is essential reading for anyone requiring information on dog training, whether it be for the field or home. "Be to his virtues ever kind Be to his faults a little blind." Many of the earliest dog breed books, particularly those dating back to the 1900s and before, are now extremely scarce and increasingly expensive. VINTAGE DOG BOOKS are republishing these classic works in affordable, high quality, modern editions, using the original text and artwork.
