Two yammering British intellectuals travel to the American south to form a new religionmdash;with CanadiansThe sequel to the 2010 hit Spuriousmdash;which was acclaimed by the Los Angeles Times, the Guardian, the San Francisco Chronicle, the Times Literary Supplement, and the Washington Post, which called it ldquo;fearsomely funnyrdquo;mdash;Dogma finds Lars and W. still, continually and without cease, arguing, although this time in a different country.This time out, the duo embarks on a trip to the American Deep South, where, in company with a band of Canadians who may or may not be related to W., they attempt to form a new religion based on their philosophical studies. Their mission is soon derailed by their inability to take meaningful action, their endless bickering, the peculiar behavior of the natives, and by a true catastrophe: they canrsquo;t seem to find a liquor store that carries their brand of gin.Part Nietzsche, part Monty Python, part Huckleberry Finn, Dogma is a novel as ridiculous and profound as religion itself.
