Beschreibung
Why do people love their dogs so much, and where does the age-old bond that has endured through the centuries come from? Daňa Horáková seeks answers in stories about people for whom a dog is part of the family, writing that a warm puppy cuddling trustingly against you and falling asleep is far more effective therapy than a handful of antidepressants. Sigmund Freud, who loved his dog more than his grandson, would surely have agreed, as would Maria Callas, who sang duets with her poodle; Apple creator Steve Jobs, who began questioning his icy perfectionism thanks to his dog Jenny; Agatha Christie, who dedicated a novel to her fox terrier; Paul McCartney, who immortalized his dog in the song Martha; Franz Kafka, Jaroslav Hašek, Empress Sisi and Picasso. This book about famous dogs and their people is heartwarming and especially welcome in today’s world.
