stream of consciousness by a very intelligent and creative person which might be interesting in conversation but I found difficult in a book. Also perhaps not being a dog owner I may have lost out on some of the appreciation of this book.

For a dog memoir it gets strangely philosophical. At times whimsial and at times outright ridiculous, this tribute to read friend is an unusual response to grief but maybe even an honest one.

Some of this I found quite touching, but parts of it were too scattered and out there for me. No criticism meant at all, just not my thing. I loved hearing about Rosie, though.

While I could appreciate the pushing of boundaries and the exploration of identity politics, this one confused and puzzled me. I wasn’t quite able to follow the story, but could appreciate the artistry.
