- Synopsis
- 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.
