Product Description

Book Description
* 'Stapledon is the great classical example...the ultimate sf writer' Trillion Year Spree * '[Stapledon's] influence...on the development of many concepts which now permeate genre sf is probably second only to that of H.G. Wells' The Encyclopedia of Science Fiction * A moving and profound study of alien intelligence and sensibility * Probably the finest novel with a non-human protagonist ever written.

Product Description
Sirius is Thomas Trelone's great experiment - a huge, handsome dog with the brain and intelligence of a human being. Raised and educated in Trelone's own family alongside Plaxy, his youngest daughter, Sirius is a truly remarkable and gifted creature. His relationship with the Trelones, particularly with Plaxy, is deep and close, and his inquiring mind ranges across the spectrum of human knowledge and experience. But Sirius isn't human and the conflicts and inner turmoil that torture him cannot be resolved.
