| Post subject: | Frank Baum - The Glass Dog |
The Glass Dog is about a wizard who lived on the top floor of a tenement house and because he was the inventor of “several wizardments himself” people like: iceman, milkman, the baker’s boy, laundryman and the peanut woman kept visiting him. That is why he wished to have a dog. Right from the beginning of the story we can see some new elements that shows as that we deal with a new type of stories that are contemporary and familiar to our style of living. And if we are not absolutely convinced that this is not a traditional these words clarify things: “But he stopped at a drug store and put his last dime in the telephone box so he could talk to Miss Mydas without being bitten by the dog. Give me Pelf 6742!...” |
