A novel of awesome beauty and power by the Hungarian master, Laszla Krasznahorkai. Winner of a 2005 PEN Translation Fund Award.War and War, Laszla Krasznahorkai's second novel in English from New Directions, begins at a point of danger: on a dark train platform Korim is on the verge of being attacked by thuggish teenagers and robbed; and from here, we are carried along by the insistent voice of this nervous clerk. Desperate, at times almost mad, but also keenly empathic, Korim has discovered in a small Hungarian town's archives an antique manuscript of startling beauty: it narrates the epic tale of brothers-in-arms struggling to return home from a disastrous war. Korim is determined to do away with himself, but before he can commit suicide, he feels he must escape to New York with the precious manuscript and commit it to eternity by typing it all on the world-wide web. Following Korim with obsessive realism through the streets of New York (from his landing in a Bowery flophouse to his moving far uptown with a mad interpreter), War and War relates his encounters with a fascinating range of humanity, a world torn between viciousness and mysterious beauty. Following the eight chapters of War and War is a short "prequel acting as a sequel," "Isaiah," which brings us to a dark bar, years before in Hungary, where Korim rants against the world and threatens suicide. Written like nothing else (turning single sentences into chapters), War and War affirms W. G. Sebald's comment that Krasznahorkai's prose "far surpasses all the lesser concerns of contemporary writing."

Dog loves them, no rawhide!
My dog is obsessed with these! We have a 70 pound pit mix who is a power chewer and these rolls last forever. He goes crazy for the peanut butter taste and it takes him a couple of days to really destroy one entirely. They are very effective for keeping him busy as the size is massive. I like giving him something so large because he then sets his mind to it for a long time. I like that they have a lot of collagen in them, I can't say I've noticed that his coat is a great deal shinier but it can't hurt! I also like that these are rawhide free. I would say these are a good value as they keep him busy for a good amount of time.

These are great my dog loved it
Well, I can say one thing I have shepherd. Wolf hybrids, and they are very particular about the stuff they eat. I can give them raw meat, and if it's old, they don't want it, so they're pretty finicky, I hooked them up with these. And they didn't hesitate to go at them. So I wait, I fed half, and then waited a couple of days, they had no negative response to it. That I'm aware of and so I gave him the other one and split it between them, and they don't stop until they're gone. So they pretty much sold themselves for me. If mine My dogs will eat em.They must be okay worth the money in my book.Made my babies happy should get some for yours my dogs are like super chooers.Okay, they have jaws that break bone.So to try to say that these are not good for heavy chewers, I i can't agree with that.Although they won't last very long with heavy chewers, they do great.The dogs love them we only smell was the smell of the product.Kind of a food smell to it.And as soon as I opened the package, the dogs had me surrounded like the sue did old custard, and they weren't letting me go until I shared straight up the male's a hundred plus pounds.And he's eyeballing me like, i'm gonna be lunch.If I don't give him a share, it was funny as hell a great product i think one of the things is the peanut butter.That's in them.My dogs love their peanut butter now.These are almost a foot long each stick, and they're about an inch and a half in diameter.Now they would last for a pretty good time for a normal chew type.DogRottweiler's pit bull saint bernard's high bread.Shepherds, et cetera, anything with a two thousand pound byte is going to tear these things up and have a great time.Doing itThey won't last as long as the dainty chewers and the the comfort chewers, but they'll do the job

Not made for Golden Retrievers.
Nope. Did not last an hour with our Golden Retrievers. We bought these for Christmas hoping to entertain our 2 and 4 year old Goldens while cleaning their teeth. Within an hour they were destroyed.

Dental health
Not a convenient place to place a treat. Then my dog picked not chewed much. Sturdy. Great for a hard chewer.
