TO DANCE WITH THE WHITE DOG

Sam Peek, 81, who has just experienced the death of his wife of fifty-seven years, journeys alone along Georgia back roads to his sixtieth college reunion. The dog in the title, mysterious and sometimes ghost-like, joins Sam and remains his companion throughout the story. The deceptively simple story is accomplished with skillfully crafted prose and economy of style. The author reads with an honesty and intensity superbly suited to this fine work, which deserves to be better known. M.A.M. ©AudioFile, Portland, Maine [Published: NOV 93]
