<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>From the bestselling author of "Cowboys Are My Weakness" comes a very special love story between a woman and her dog, a wolfhound who teaches "his human" that love is stronger than fear.<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br>This is the story of a woman, Rae, and her dog, Dante, a wolfhound who teaches his human that love is stronger than fear (the dog has always known this). Dante is the catalyst for change in other characters as well, and they step forward with their narratives: Rae's house-tender; her therapist; two veterinarians; and an anxiety-ridden actor, Howard, who turns out to be as stalwart as Dante himself. As the seer who hunts by sight rather than smell, Dante has some things to add, as does Rose, another dog who lives at Rae's heels, and Stanley the cat. Among and above these myriad voices, Rae voices her own challenges. With the wit and dead-on candor we've come to expect from Pam Houston, <em>Sight Hound</em> unfolds a story that illuminates the intangible covenant between loved ones. Here, dogs and humans are simply equal creatures, looking to connect and holding on for dear life when they do. Reading group guide included.<p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>"Entertaining. ... It's a poignant and joyous novel, a tear-jerker certain to appeal to those of us who suspect, foolishly or intuitively, that our pets' emotions are tightly bound to our own. Without excess sentimentality, Houston offers proof that fickle humans are capable of learning a lesson or two in devotion, even if the teacher has four legs and bad breath."<br>
