Reading Matter for Dogs


Girlsie here again. I've been reading (make that trying to read) Samuel Beckett's novel Molloy. Alas, I've only gotten to page 12, but now I'm seriously fired up. Beckett describes a man taking a walk with his dog, the little thing "stopping, turning in slow circles, giving up and then, a little further on, beginning all over again. "Constipation is a sign of good health in pomeranians."

Face it, this Beckett guy knows dogs. Put this one on your reading list, bow-wows, even though so far he's had only one paragraph break in all those twelve pages. Prop it up over your dog bowl!
