The English translation of the early short-novel by Russian writer Mikhail Bulgakov.
A kind of Frankenstein parable, Heart of a Dog is the story of a stray dog that gains a human intelligence after a prominent Moscow professor transplants human glands into the unfortunate canine's body.
The novel satirizes a smaller swathe of Soviets' society and seems a prisoner of its own circular plot structure.
