   May 3, 2015 · I hear tell that The Strays is a very good book; it’s certainly on my never-diminishing to-be-read list. Thus far, though, it’s another of the works longlisted from the prize that has most captivated my attention: Ceridwen Dovey’s intriguing, sometimes demanding, but very rewarding Only the Animals.
