A woman puts her art career on hold to stay at home with her newborn son, but the experience does not match her imagination. Two years later, she steps into the bathroom for a break from her toddler's demands, only to discover a dense patch of hair on the back of her neck. In the mirror, her canines suddenly look sharper than she remembers. As the mother's symptoms intensify, she struggles to keep her alter-canine-identity secret. An outrageously original novel of ideas about art, power, and womanhood wrapped in a satirical fairy tale.
