"The Heart of a Dog," illustrated by Albert Payson Terhune, is a satirical novella by Mikhail Bulgakov that explores themes of identity and morality. The story follows a stray dog named Sharik who undergoes a transformation into a human after being subjected to a controversial scientific experiment by Professor Preobrazhensky. As Sharik becomes a man, he struggles with his new identity, grappling with the juxtaposition of animal instincts and human societal values. The narrative delves into the absurdities of the human condition, offering a humorous yet poignant critique of social and ethical dilemmas in early 20th-century Russia.
