Summary: A self-satisfied young man in flight from polite society stumbles upon a household in which the dogs try to bite him and the people snarl like dogs at each other and at him, and where a ghost cries outside his bedroom window demanding to be let in. Thus begins a story of violent loves and hatreds, and of a passion that extends across two generations and across death itself.
