A New York Times Notable BookNominated for the Man Booker PrizeIn this extraordinary, both comic and philosophically profound novel, the acclaimed author of Netherland uncovers the hidden contours of a glittering Middle Eastern city-and the quiet dilemmas of modernity. When our unnamed hero, a self-sabotaging and oddly existential lawyer, finds his life in New York falling apart, he seizes an opportunity to flee to Dubai, taking a mysterious job for a fabulously wealthy Lebanese family. As he struggles with his position as the family officer of the capricious Batros brothers, he also struggles with the doghouse, a condition of culpability in which he feels trapped, even as he composes endless electronic correspondence-both sent and unsent-in an attempt to find a way out.An unforgettable fable for our globalized times, The Dog is told with Joseph ONeills hallmark eloquence, empathy, and stylistic mastery.
