A tale of passion and romance between a Japanese schoolteacher and a doglike man unfolds in The Bridegroom Was a Dog, a prize-winning novel by Mitsuko, a schoolteacher at the Kitamura school. Her unconventional manner, including telling the children a fable about a princess and a dog, inspires both rumour and curiosity among the parents. When a young man with sharp canine teeth arrives at her home and declares he's here to stay, a romantic and sexual relationship develops that intrigues the community, with some harboring suspicions about the man's identity and motives. Masterfully subverting the rules of folklore and fable, The Bridegroom Was a Dog is a disarming and unforgettable modern classic.
