Actually this is the picture of mutt that makes me read. Regard attentive, intelligent, expressive. Much more interesting than most humans. The first lines remind me Parable of Faulkner. But no, there isnt the same metaphysical dimension than the other. Here, this is only an existential drama. Morlac SIMagine protesters have convictions, revolutionary and pacifist and acts accordingly. He was put in jail because, decorated with the cross of war, he violated the order established in foisting his dog in public decoration, meaning where the heroes are not much better. Yet is it really superior as he believes in the pet? The beasts Nont not they qualities that nature has given them and we have lost? The judge hearing the case, insightful and psychologist, struck him home truths. No, he nen not make a martyr. No psychodrama. He does not condemn as he wishes. No nest held accountable sil didnt free will. Morlac is not responsible and therefore not guilty. And the judge to explain that sil could continue to live happily with his wife and his kid without being separated by the war, not naurait, moved by pride, sought to conceal the real cause for making false justifications projecting his misfortunes to the outside world and to seek self-flagellation by a sort of punishment for missing happiness. That said it all: if all frustrated try to solve their problems through introspection instead of projecting them to the outside and emm ***** others, there would be far less pain on earth. No war, no ideological or religious proselytism. No hero either, but it is not a big loss.
