Book Description
A moving love story of a naked abandoned dog and a neglected bourgeois teenie, who try to escape their ghastly homes, to emigrate, to find happiness somewhere else on earth. Unfortunately the rusty emigration ship was sunk erroneously by a German submarine which escaped WW II. But Arthur, the poet, saved their lives, paddling along on his cello. After some discouraging adventures, where they stranded, they end up involuntarely as guinea pigs in a genetic laboratory. At last, Skeleton Barbies beautiful body could almost be restored, Arthur, the poet, joobbing as a nightporter of the Municipal Theatre, gives them shelter, washes the dishes and cheers them up, playing on his rotten cello at the wrong moments. But the longing for an ideal world forces forces our three brave companions inevitably back to the road, in their eternal search for happiness. This is a rather sarcastic black humored story, told and illustrated by Jeff Spoon the pseudonym of a rather wellknown theatre director and stage designer.
