"He sits in the middle of her room, dizzy and weirded out. He stares at her. Neither of them knows what to do with the other. This goes on for a number of days until the man’s mother takes action. She decides to love him."

This is a story about a dog. It is also a story about love, and abandonment, and hope. About anger, and bitterness, and whether the fish are coming back. About guilt and shame and pride. But mostly, it is a story about a dog. 

Vivienne Franzmann's beautiful and haunting The Man, the Man's Mother, and the Dog is a return to classic fireside storytelling. Plug in and immerse yourself in the dark magic of this story of a dog's life. Don't worry. The dog lives.
