The
Art of Racing in the Rain
By
Garth Stein
“In Mongolia, when a dog dies, he is buried
high in the hills so people cannot walk on his grave. The dog’s master whispers into the dog’s ears
his wish that the dog will return as a man in his next life.”
“I learned that from a program on National
Geographic channel, so I believe it is true.
I’ m ready” Enzo
The
Art of Racing in the Rain, is the story of Enzo, who knows he is
different from other dogs and thinks he has a human soul. He has educated himself by watching
television, listening to his master Denny Swift, who is an up and coming race
car driver.
On the eve of his death, Enzo looks back at
his life remembering all that he and his family have been through. Denny’s struggles to become a driver, the
loss of his wife Eve to cancer and the battle against his daughter’s Zoe,
maternal grandparents over custody of her.
In the end, Enzo comes through to help
preserve the Swift Family. A story of
love, tragedy and relationships that we see through the eyes of a dog, Enzo.
The book The Art of Racing in the Rain will make you laugh and cry and make
you look at dogs in a different light.
