LiteratureThe Hound
The Hound follows two collectors whose pursuit of increasingly extreme aesthetic sensations leads them to rob a grave in Holland. The jade amulet they take becomes the focus of a pursuit that neither travel nor the destruction of their collection can end. The narrator’s attempt to return the object produces a final discovery that links the stolen relic, the grave’s occupant and the sound following him. This synopsis includes the ending.
