Product details

This dog costs us a fortune! Mr. and Mrs. Cletus believe their four-legged friend Jasper urgently needs a job. Thus, the Doberman, who in the school performance of George Bernard Shaw's "Caesar and Cleopatra" almost resembles the Egyptian deity Anubis, becomes an absolute star alongside Cleopatra. With unforeseen consequences. Michael Ondaatje, the great Canadian writer, depicts a thoroughly bourgeois society and family. The illustrations effortlessly highlight the author's laconic tone: with an elegantly casual stroke, Serge Bloch opens the curtain for Jasper, and we, as spectators, witness the transformation of a pet into an absolute alpha animal. Bloch's style, as he himself states, is influenced by Paul Klee, Steinberg, Steig, Topor, Blechman, Sempé, Bosc, Chaval, André François, and many others.
