"In Mongolia When a Dog Dies...

...he is buried high in the hills so people will not walk on his grave. The dog's master whispers into his ear his wishes that the dog will return as a man in his next life..." So begins "The Art of Racing in the Rain." Below is a video trailer for the book. I don't believe there is a movie (yet). I actually had to fiddle with HTML a tiny bit, and I don't really speak the language. But I got the video clip embedded, and that's what counts. Voila!



In this book the dog (and author) is Enzo. Don't be mistaken, it's no ordinary cute book pretending to be written by a dog about its master. But be warned, it may make you ponder your existence, yearn for lost love, and even cry. I checked it out on Amazon, and discovered it has 670 customer reviews.
