Dog is a poignant exploration of PTSD, addiction, and redemption, told through an Israeli officer returning from service. Haunted by trauma, he descends into heroin addiction among Tel Aviv’s marginalised drug community—until a stray dog unexpectedly enters his life. The novel traces a journey through psychological anguish, fragile hope, and the search for meaning after war. Dog examines how extreme stress, moral injury, and combat make civilian life elusive, along with the healing power of an unexpected human-animal connection.
Yishai Ishi Ron is an acclaimed Israeli author, a former elite combat soldier, and a survivor of severe PTSD. Writing has been an essential part of his healing journey, enabling him to transform deeply personal wounds into stories of trauma, resilience, and redemption. With his unique background as a soldier and a psychology graduate, Ron brings authenticity and profound psychological depth to his storytelling, making Dog both intensely personal and universally resonant. Dog was longlisted for the Sapir Prize, Israel’s most prestigious literary award.
