Chog is the story of an old, eccentric man who leaves his fortune to his dog. His servants have to learn to serve a canine to keep their jobs and go to EXTREME measures to do so. This is a twisted fairy tale and is not for the easily offended. If it had been written in a serious manner, it could be very sick. Written in the humorous, Victorian-style of Quentin Crisp, it's probably even more sick, if a bit more palatable to the normal person. A good read, if you aren't easily offended.
