LETTING LOOSE THE HOUNDS

Based on the award-winning short story that originally appeared in the Paris Review, “Letting Loose the Hounds” tells the story of Goody, who has lost his girlfriend, lives out of his car, and, worst of all, desperately needs to see a dentist. After a botched oral surgery, Goody wanders the streets of Boise. When a local trapper takes pity on him, the two spend the night commiserating about the terrible hand they have both been dealt. By morning, they reach the decision that it’s time to “let the hounds loose” and start anew.
