About this work
"Baggage" tells the story of a lady who checks her baggage and her little dog at the train. After the dog becomes lost during the course of the voyage, the train employees substitute an enormous dog for her tiny one, and then respond to her outrage with the suggestion that her dog might have grown during the journey. Frequent repetitions, single-word lines, and abundant rhymes accentuate the humorous, absurdist tone.
