A literary sensation published to outstanding accolades in America and around the world, Lord of the Barnyard was one of the most auspicious fiction debuts of recent years. Now available in paperback, Tristan Egolf's manic, inventive, and painfully funny debut novel is the story of a town's dirty laundry -- and a garbagemen's strike that lets it all hang out. Lord of the Barnyard begins with the death of a woolly mammoth in the last Ice Age and concludes with a greased-pig chase at a funeral in the modern-day Midwest. In the interim there are two hydroelectric dam disasters, fourteen tavern brawls, one shoot-out in the hills, three cases of probable arson, a riot in the town hall, and a lone tornado, as well as appearances by a coven of Methodist crones, an encampment of Appalachian crop thieves, six renegade coal-truck operators, an outraged mob of factory rats, a dysfunctional poultry plant, and one autodidact goat-roping farm boy by the name of John Kaltenbrunner. Lord of the Barnyard is a brilliantly comic tapestry of a Middle America still populated by river rats and assembly-line poultry killers, measuring into shot glasses the fruits of years of quiet desperation on the factory floor. Unforgettable and linguistically dizzying, it goes much farther than postal.

Perfect for 5 Yorkies - they always go back to these...
Very durable and I'm always hearing my Yorkies gnawing and chewing on these... They really really like them. I've bought antlers and those plastic keys... But these win... The antlers are natural but I've learned they aren't healthy at all, and they still micro-splinter... The keys are too soft and plastic comes off.... These are perfect and I can see the plastic changing shape but not coming off. Perfect win. Oh, and being bright white I can see them in a dim or dark room so I don't step on them, my robot vacuum sees and avoids them, and I can see if my dogs have any bleeding gums, which they haven't had with these yet.

Great chew toy for all size pups
I had to replace a headless / tailless T-Rex. Bargain - I bought a five pack of the large Dinos for less than a three pack of the small ones.
