The Dog Doesn’t Die: Heal With These Rewritten Book Scenes
Everything was beautiful and the dogs did not hurt anything. Electric Literature’s Riana Konz rewrote the famous dog death stories so the dog doesn’t die this time. This is a catharsis for gentle souls and for lovers of literary rewriting such as ” Texts from Jane Eyre” or ” How It Was to End . “ An excerpt from the new film “Where does the red fern grow” :
The mountain lion and I met eyes. She kept her eyes on me as she slowly extended her paw through the branch, farther than I thought she could reach, and, still looking straight at me, shook a full glass of water off the tree branch. He collapsed to the ground next to me, right where the red fern grew.
Konc also rewrites Old Yeller , Marley and Me , The Grapes of Wrath , Odyssey, and Cujo . Now, somebody please do The Day The Pigs Don’t Die and The Day Today, plus all the other days, The Pigs Never Die .
