there are some beautiful moments here and there are some sections where myles is just having the most fun imaginable and then there are some parts which were absolutely incomprehensible to me but rip rosie you seemed like the best dog

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.
