Review: Zellwood: A Dog Story
Rating: 5 out of 5
Date: 12 4, 2011
A short story, done well, is almost like story concentrate. No filler or spare words, yet still including what needs saying. If properly focused there is still plenty of room for evocative description, needed back-story, and characterization, without feeling as though something important was left out. This is one of those short stories, done well.It is a story of loss and, although the narrator doesn't like the term, closure. A story about pets, how we relate to them, and how they relate to us.**Originally written for "Books and Pals" book blog. May have received a free review copy. **
