The Dogs of Littlefield

A â€œbrilliantly doneâ€ (Sunday Times, London) comedy of manners that explores the unease behind the manicured lawns of suburban America from the Orange Prizeâ€“winning author of A Crime in the Neighborhood.

Littlefield, Massachusetts, named one of the Ten Best Places to Live in America, full of psychologists and college professors, is proud of its fine schools, its girlsâ€™ soccer teams, its leafy streets, and charming village center.

Yet no sooner has sociologist Dr. Clarice Watkins arrived to study the elements of â€œgood quality of lifeâ€ than someone begins poisoning the townâ€™s dogs. Are the poisonings in protest to an off-leash proposal for Baldwin Parkâ€”the subject of much town debateâ€”or the sign of a far deeper disorder? Certainly these types of things donâ€™t happen in Littlefield.

With an element of suspense, satirical social commentary, and in-depth character portraits, Suzanne Berneâ€™s nuanced novel reveals the discontent concealed behind the manicured lawns and picket fences of darkest suburbia. The Dogs of Littlefield is â€œa compelling, poignant yet unsentimental novel that examines life, love, and lossâ€ (Sunday Mirror, UK).
