![]() ![]() “Through Denny, Enzo has gained tremendous insight into the human condition, and he sees that life, like racing, isn’t simply about going fast. ![]() “Enzo knows he is different from other dogs: a philosopher with a nearly human soul (and an obsession with opposable thumbs), he has educated himself by watching television extensively, and by listening very closely to the words of his master, Denny Swift, an up-and-coming race car driver,” Garth Stein’s official website reads. Enzo then goes through his years with Denny, his owner, and how their family of two grew into a family of four. The novel may have a sad undertone throughout because it begins of the eve of Enzo’s last day living, but this has a bigger meaning - the dog tells his story starting from when he was a puppy and met his humans. Enzo, a loveable golden retriever, begins his story at the end, when he knows his sun is setting sooner than later. “The Art of Racing in the Rain” by Garth Stein tells the story of one dog’s life told from his own perspective. ![]()
