A delicious satirical fantasy, in which humanity wears a dog collar.'Mr. Morley is a master of consequent inconsequence. His humour and irony are excellent, and his satire is only the more salient for the delicate and ingenuous fantasy in which it is set.

Christopher Morley (1890–1957) was an American novelist, essayist, journalist, and poet. He began his literary career at Oxford University as an editor of The Haverfordian and published his first novel, Parnassus on Wheels, in 1917. Its sequel, The Haunted Bookshop (1919), is one of the most beloved mystery novels ever written. Morley also edited the Saturday Review and cofounded the Baker Street Irregulars, a literary society dedicated to the study of Arthur Conan Doyle’s Sherlock Holmes stories.
