Sommario/riassunto |
|
Jack & Mollie (& Her) is an exuberant, original and wildly inventive verse novel, which tells the story of 'J' through the eyes of her two dogs, Jack and Mollie. The dogs are adopted by J at a time when she is downcast, and their presence in her life proves vivifying and redemptive. In between the dogs' adventures, they provide observant commentary on her life. |
