Der Steppenwolf-Welpe

Parody of Der Steppenwolf by Hermann Hesse

Harry Haller believes he is torn between his civilized self and a savage inner wolf. His therapist gently explains that his 'wolf' is more of a golden retriever — enthusiastic, easily distracted, and desperate for approval. The Magic Theatre becomes a dog park. Instead of existential despair, Harry discovers the joy of fetch. Hesse's darkest novel, now with belly rubs.
