Buch (Gebundene Ausgabe)

There is darkness, but there is also light.

Being the proud human of a Dachshund just like Lily, I found this book to be hugely touching, extremely humorous and heart-wrenchingly difficult to read. I found myself laughing at the many similarities that seem to exist among this peculiar breed, only to be shaken a few pages later by the harsh realization that one day it will be my turn to take this journey. By the last few chapters I was fighting back tears But Rowleys novel goes beyond the story of his dogs fight for life and digs deep into the human psyche, touching on subjects that move us all. There is darkness, but there is also light. A profound read for anyone who struggles with loss or finds themselves grappling with the meaning of life.
