Dog Man: An Uncommon Life on a Faraway Mountain by Martha Sherrill
Dog Man: An Uncommon Life on a Faraway Mountain

fshono, May 29, 2008

Started out a bit melodramatic but quickly showed her true understanding of the Japanese qualities that are not easily expressed in words. I liked the way she brought out the AIR (atmosphere) between the man and dogs; the man and other people; and the man and nature.

I was very much moved by this book thinking I could be one of the characters who were depicted in here.

I almost forgot breathing while I was in the last two chapters.
