66 short and even shorter stories that show what four-legged friends do to people who just seemed halfway sane.
Berlin. For everyone who has 90 percent of dog photos on their cell phone, has more nicknames for their dog than for their partner and has long known: “Dogs in power”? They already are!
Do you think you have a dog? Sweet. Your dog has you. He decides when you get up. Where you go. Who you're talking to. What you photograph. Why you suddenly meet complete strangers on the street. And why you stand outside in your pajamas at half past two to “pee” and still think: Best life. Alex Iwan and Frank Lorentz know what they are talking about. With Yuki and Elli, they have two pretty convincing arguments at their side that the balance of power between two-legged and four-legged friends has long since been clarified. In 66 short and even shorter stories they tell of the normal madness of a life with a dog: of love and loss of control, dog walks and gastrointestinal nights, dog logic and human nonsense, farewells, happiness and the amazing ability of our four-legged friends to wrap themselves completely around their paws. Sometimes to laugh, sometimes to sob – and quite often to recognize.
