Dawg Towne by Alice Kaltman, FIVE stars and woofs!

 Tex and Jaz tried to read the book in the sun...too hot!

 

It’s rare for me to buy a physical copy of a book, but Dawg Towne, by Alice Kaltman is one I knew I’d want to pass around, and that’s not easy to do with an ebook. Besides, my dogs, Tex and Jaz, had heard so much about it they wanted to take a look. I sped through it, and was sorry, because I rather miss Towne, now that I am no longer visiting it in words, and the characters, human and canine, worked their way into my heart. Kaltman has done a marvelous job of creating people who live the emotions we all experience, those that we can talk about, and those we can’t. The overwhelming sense that I got was that everyone needs a best friend and companion, and sometimes, dogs are the best choice.

"Did she tell you we liked it?"

 

I won’t spoil the story, but merely comment that this is a book for anyone who’s lived in a city, or suburb, or outside them both, who feels the isolation that each locale can create. It’s also for everyone who’s ever known, or loved, a dog. Thanks Alice, for another wonderful story, and literary companions.

Tex and Jaz cuddled up with the book....

Then they lent it to their pal, Sasha.  

 

 

 And she agreed.  Great book for summer 2021!
