INFO
If daddy-Loranga isn’t listening to pop music and eating ice cream and fish paste sandwiches, then he’s out riding his giraffe, getting himself arrested and thrown into jail. Meanwhile semi-demented grandpa- Dartanjang can’t decide if he’s a tiger tamer, a first nation tribal chief, or a master painter and/or plumber. So the brightest of the three, child-Masarin, must always watch their backs, even when they turn into dogs.
“Dear daddy Loranga and Loranga’s daddy Dartanjang, I’m writing this to you now and I’m also quite sad because…you’ve gone and become dogs. On the other hand I’m also happy for you. Well, perhaps being a dog is the right way to live – if you let me say it – a happy life without any problems or philosophic questions that exist in a child’s heart.”
