  2. THE POWER OF THE DOG

    An even more improbable entry is the one that pins the tail on the killer.

  6. The Power of the Dog: the remarkable, twisted story of the book behind

    Published in 1967, The Power of the Dog is a taut tension-wire of a book. Two brothers - the malevolent, autodidactic Phil, who is 40, and the solid, quiet George, three years his junior - share a bedroom in their parents' sprawling ranch just as they have always done. Phil is a peculiar man: he speaks Greek, he whittles miniature furniture.

    Like Toni Morrison's novels, I could not put this book down, and like Harper Lee's To Kill A Mockingbird, the devilish confrontation, central to its story, rest in the minute and masterfully narrated details. The Power of the Dog does not make for easy, light, feel-good reading.

  18. Review

    The Power of the Dog is the best crime novel about the Western Hemisphere's drug trade I have read in many years. It will leave you stunned, but also sickened by the dark side of American democracy. Dog is relentless in the pounding it delivers to U.S. policy regarding the so-called War on Drugs (which is really tantamount to a non-war on drugs).
