Have fun reading! I didn't the chance to go to the bookstore today. Maybe on my day off next week I'll get my hands on it or just order it on amazon.

Only the first chapter.

The protagonist, Robert, is divorced (his marriage didn't last long), in his thirties, and has a sister called Alice. No physical description of the character yet.
The incipit sure leaves an impression because it open with the protagonist on the balcony, reflecting on things happened in the previous months... while he enjoys his dog meat meal.

Me too! Started it on a flight and then fell asleep. I've gotten as far as you. There is a reference to Robert being 'sexually aggressive'...did you catch that? Innerresting...

oh oh..look what I started. I think I misread the line. I went back to it and it's about another character, not Robert Liang. Sorry..wishful thinking I guess!!

It's okay.

But now I'm wondering is he eating dog meat like the meat of dogs or is he eating dog meat meaning the food for dogs?

Must have been difficult times for him. Or he just knows how to cook it that it tastes good
