This looks great! Thank you so much! I agree, a very interesting book
altogether.

Hello the list:
I'm directing a production of Conor McPherson's The Seafarer, and
one of
the characters claims to be wearing a Versace jacket made of
"dogskin." He
clarifies that it's a kind of fabric, and another character feels the
sleeve and remarks on its softness.
I'm sure McPherson doesn't mean houndstooth, although I did find a
picture
of a Versace tuxedo-style jacket supposedly in houndstooth but
looking
distinctly solid-black to me. Certainly the Broadway production,
which
McPherson directed, didn't have a character in a houndstooth-check
jacket.
Can't find an answer on the Internet. Does anyone know of a fabric
with
this name?
Thank you for any help!
