Review:  2016

The intelligent and wise mutt, Enzo, expounds on his ideas of love, responsibility, appreciation, and hope.

 

Enzo resides in Seattle, WA, with Denny, his racecar driver caretaker and best friend, whom he loves with all his heart.  As Enzo, more human than canine, realizes that he is getting older, that his body is failing, and that he has not much longer to live, he reminisces over his life.

 

Told in Enzo’s voice, the novel is an extraordinary, beautifully written book that will touch the heart of anyone who has affection for animals; and perhaps, even touch some who do not.  Five stars; highly recommended.
