Fantastisch, merkwürdig und nicht ganz ungefährlich ist das Leben mit einem wundersamen Haustier. In 16 Geschichten erzählen uns die Geschichtenweber von den Haustieren unserer Träume und Albträume, ihren Besitzern und deren Leben miteinander.

Em Beatriz, a personagem que se tornou conhecida do público em Um erro emocional acompanha agora o autor em situações originais. Composto por sete histórias longas e um prólogo revelador, em que o autor confessa suas fraquezas, o livro de contos traz a marca do romancista: em todos está presente a mesma personagem, Beatriz, em momentos diferentes de sua vida, e às vezes Paulo Donetti, o escritor que é sua difícil paixão.
