Beschreibung:
Complete and unabridged, with 57 full-page plates by Winslow Homer, Albert Bierstadt and William Morris Hunt. Mr Gissing, a dog, keeps a suburban house and three puppies, and sets out to find God — via a department store, a bishopric and a berth as a ship's stoker. Morley was a Rhodes Scholar and a founder of the Saturday Review; this 1922 fantasy is his strangest book, and the theology is entirely serious under the fur. Fifty-seven plates, from Landseer to Munch, gather houses, homecomings and shadows, the same domestic longings that send a dog out in search of heaven.
