Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A man, his dog, and a long walk can lead to unexpected discoveries. In the tradition of many literary walkers, David W. Berner sets out on foot hoping to reexamine his life, look back and forward, and most importantly, through the help of his young dog, Sam, try to find harmony in new beginnings and the uncertainties of the present. In a series of chapters, each dedicated to one walk during a summer of hiking, the author finds that it is his beloved pet that allows him to awaken to a new spirit of mindfulness, finding beauty, wonder, and comfort in the ordinary, and to see a life, a neighborhood, and even a country with brand new eyes. 'With gentle humor and brilliant musings, both past and present, Walks With Sam has the charm and the innate truthfulness that some find in a work of art, a daily quest tinged with wonder and mystery with each forward step.' L.B.Johnson, author of The Book of Barkley.

Download or read book A Dog Named Fluffy Sam written by Carol Perkins and published by . This book was released on 2016-11-21 with total page 250 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "You want WHAT for Christmas?" my husband Guy said when I suggested I wanted a dog for my gift that year. "You don't have time to take care of a dog." His argument was true, but my dog-loving friends had been urging me since my retirement to get a pet. "Pets give so much love and comfort." Evidently, they thought I needed both. A pet will keep me alive longer," I said. "So will exercising, but I don't see you doing much of that!" I had to convince him because having a dog living inside our home would affect both of us. Fluffy Sam was six months old when we brought him to our home, and that began a ten-year romping relationship that both taxed my patience and opened my heart. No matter how much I worked with him, he never came when called, barked as if the house were on fire, and eventually ruined my carpets. He escaped when the door opened, growled at visitors and charged at their ankles, and merely tolerated Guy. He was not the friendly dog I had pictured, but he was my dog. He loved me and protected me even when I didn't need it. No shock collar, sleeping pill, puppy gate, training manuals, or puppy camp changed Fluffy Sam. "A dog that sleeps at the foot of a bed is sorely missed."
Download or read book The Way of the Dog written by Sam Savage and published by Coffee House Press. This book was released on 2012-12-18 with total page 121 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Sam Savage [creates] some of the most original, unforgettable characters in contemporary fiction. . . . Readers are left with a voice so strong that Savage is able to derive significance from these events by sheer literary force."--Kevin Larimer, Poets & Writers "Savage's skill is in creating complex first-person characters using nothing but their own voice."--Carolyn Kellogg, Los Angeles Times "[Savage] creates one of the most intriguing stories--and one of the most vivid characters--that this reader has encountered this year."--The Writer Sam Savage's most intimate, tender novel yet follows Harold Nivenson, a decrepit, aging man who was once a painter and arts patron. The death of Peter Meinenger, his friend turned romantic and intellectual rival, prompts him to ruminate on his own career as a minor artist and collector and make sense of a lifetime of gnawing doubt. Over time, his bitterness toward his family, his gentrifying neighborhood, and the decline of intelligent artistic discourse gives way to a kind of peace within himself, as he emerges from the shadow of the past and finds a reason to live, every day, in "the now." Sam Savage is the best-selling author of Firmin: Adventures of a Metropolitan Lowlife, The Cry of the Sloth, and Glass. A native of South Carolina, Savage holds a PhD in philosophy from Yale University. He resides in Madison, Wisconsin.

Book excerpt: A breakthrough novel from the acclaimed young American writer Boris Leonidovich, a North American professor who specializes in the history of prison architecture, has been invited to Buenos Aires for an academic conference. He’s planning to present a paper on Moscow’s feared Butyrka prison, but most of all he’s looking forward to seeing his enigmatic, fiercely intelligent colleague (and sometime lover) Ana again. As soon as Boris arrives, however, he encounters obstacle after unlikely obstacle: he can’t get in touch with Ana, he locks himself out of his rented room, and he discovers dog-feeding stations and water bowls set before every house and business. With night approaching, he finds himself lost and alone in a foreign city filled with stray dogs, all flowing with sinister, bewildering purpose though the darkness... Shadowed with foreboding, and yet alive with the comical mischief of César Aira and the nimble touch of a great stylist, Dog Symphony is an un-nerving and propulsive novel by a talented new American voice.

Book excerpt: Dog lovin' chaos in the 1970's - an era where dogs reached their free roamin' evolutionary peak. A time before leash laws, cable TV and the internet. A time when a dog was free to chase, hump and fight to his heart's content. Dallas and his doggie "partners in crime" lived by that credo- "dog lovin' chaos." The Dogs of Sherburne were real and author Tom Mody has taken accounts of their exploits from their Masters and his own disbelieving eyes.
