Out of a Shakespearean-wild Midwest dust storm, a man rises. "Just
a glimpse of him," says his sister; "every inch of him," says his
guilt-filled lover. "Close your eyes," says his nephew. "What about
it?" asks his father. The cupboard is filled with lime Jell-O, and
there are aliens, deadly kissing, and a restless, alcoholic mother
who carries a gun. "Every family is this normal," insists the
narrator. "Whoever noticed my brother, with a family as normal as
this?" the beleaguered sister asks. Against the smoky prairie
horizon and despite his seizures, a brother builds a life. Imbued
with melancholy cheer, Dog on Fire unfolds around a family's
turmoil, past loves, and a mysterious death.
