DOWNLOAD EBOOKA man, his dog, and a long walk can lead to unexpected discoveries. In the tradition of many literary walkers, David W. Berner sets out on foot hoping to reexamine his life, look back and forward, and most importantly, through the help of his young dog, Sam, try to find harmony in new beginnings and the uncertainties of the present. In a series of chapters, each dedicated to one walk during a summer of hiking, the author finds that it is his beloved pet that allows him to awaken to a new spirit of mindfulness, finding beauty, wonder, and comfort in the ordinary, and to see a life, a neighborhood, and even a country with brand new eyes. 'With gentle humor and brilliant musings, both past and present, Walks With Sam has the charm and the innate truthfulness that some find in a work of art, a daily quest tinged with wonder and mystery with each forward step.' L.B.Johnson, author of The Book of Barkley.

DOWNLOAD EBOOK"You want WHAT for Christmas?" my husband Guy said when I suggested I wanted a dog for my gift that year. "You don't have time to take care of a dog." His argument was true, but my dog-loving friends had been urging me since my retirement to get a pet. "Pets give so much love and comfort." Evidently, they thought I needed both. A pet will keep me alive longer," I said. "So will exercising, but I don't see you doing much of that!" I had to convince him because having a dog living inside our home would affect both of us. Fluffy Sam was six months old when we brought him to our home, and that began a ten-year romping relationship that both taxed my patience and opened my heart. No matter how much I worked with him, he never came when called, barked as if the house were on fire, and eventually ruined my carpets. He escaped when the door opened, growled at visitors and charged at their ankles, and merely tolerated Guy. He was not the friendly dog I had pictured, but he was my dog. He loved me and protected me even when I didn't need it. No shock collar, sleeping pill, puppy gate, training manuals, or puppy camp changed Fluffy Sam. "A dog that sleeps at the foot of a bed is sorely missed."

Racked with guilt, Sam makes a bold decision for the first time in his life: he’s going to rescue his only friend. Sam is thrust into a vivid world fraught with demons, vicious beasts, and a falling city. And every leg of his journey reminds him that he isn’t some brave knight on a quest — he’s an insecure teenager yearning to make his mark on at least one world.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKA breakthrough novel from the acclaimed young American writer Boris Leonidovich, a North American professor who specializes in the history of prison architecture, has been invited to Buenos Aires for an academic conference. He’s planning to present a paper on Moscow’s feared Butyrka prison, but most of all he’s looking forward to seeing his enigmatic, fiercely intelligent colleague (and sometime lover) Ana again. As soon as Boris arrives, however, he encounters obstacle after unlikely obstacle: he can’t get in touch with Ana, he locks himself out of his rented room, and he discovers dog-feeding stations and water bowls set before every house and business. With night approaching, he finds himself lost and alone in a foreign city filled with stray dogs, all flowing with sinister, bewildering purpose though the darkness... Shadowed with foreboding, and yet alive with the comical mischief of César Aira and the nimble touch of a great stylist, Dog Symphony is an un-nerving and propulsive novel by a talented new American voice.
