Dogs

When she enrolls in the famous Film Academy in Prague, Dora hopes to get everything she wants from life – “knowledge, freedom, sex, work, success, love, and money”. Golden Prague is the city of her dreams, but also the place where she will face all the challenges of life. There she meets an older, charismatic photographer, falls in love, and gives in to her passions, not even suspecting how powerful his dark energy is. And while he is her first great love, she for him is a reminiscence of his late wife, an Andalusian whom he loved endlessly. Dogs is a novel about a generation of millennials yearning for freedom, who have grown up believing that anything is possible. This debut novel is a gripping story about the passion and obsession, of Thanatos and Eros, a pageturner full of the universal hunger for all that life has to offer. Even while they are aware that they are rushing to their doom, Šustić’s heroes cannot give up their passions because without them there is no life.
