Fanzi, the Dog – Absurd Chronicles of a World Gone Mad!
What if a dog told us about the world today?
Fanzi is a dog. An attentive, loyal, intelligent, and deeply endearing dog. His human, Jean-Claude, is a trader in Paris, committed, passionate, often tired… and always a little overwhelmed by the modern world.
From their walks along the Marne River to absurd meetings, from dinners with friends to family squabbles, Fanzi observes, understands, sometimes judges… but above all, he loves. He sees what humans no longer see: the beauty of simple things, the fragility of certainties, and the tenderness hidden behind so much serious talk.
With humor, tenderness, and disarming lucidity, he tells us about life today—its contradictions, its moods, its flaws—as a dog can see it when he is loved and loves in return.
A warm, funny, and profound novel that leaves you feeling good.
