Winner of the British Fantasy Award for best novel. Recovering from a recent nervous breakdown, Harry Radcliffe, known for his visionary, award-winning architectural marvels that blur the lines between buildings and abstract sculptures, embarks on a unique project in the Middle East: the construction of a Dog Museum commissioned by a powerful royal family there. His journey takes a mystical turn when, after the museum is threatened by an opposing warlord there, the project is moved to a site in the Austrian alps. As construction progresses, uncanny events and figures emerge to both complicate and enhance Radcliffe's vision. Praise for Outside the Dog Museum: "If you didn't know that Lewis Carroll was a pseudonym, you might wonder if this Carroll might be a relative. He, too, uses fanciful jests to point up common absurdities and makes fantasy seem altogether tangible." - Publishers Weekly on Outside the Dog Museum "I envy anyone who has yet to enjoy the sexy, eerie and addictive novels of Jonathan Carroll. They are delicious treats--with devilish tricks inside them." - Michael Dirda, The Washington Post on Outside the Dog Museum
