  • A dog lover’s delight, funny, heartwarming, well written!

Cannot wait to read this! Received as a Christmas gift. Beautiful stories, poems and cartoons from one of my life-long favorite publications, with content from famous writers.

  • Dogs, Dogs, and more Dogs!
Format: Hardcover
Bought as a gift, but I read it first. You've got to really love dogs to enjoy this whole book, or maybe read a chapter here and there over the course of a few months, but it's all dog, and that's alot of dog!! Still, some very touching stuff, some just cute, others quite a stretch to be amusing and/or interesting. Older articles, which evidently were once the talk of the town, seem horribly dated (e.g. Thurber to me has always been a mystery.) But each to his own. If you adore dogs, you will at least enjoy most of this book. ... show more

  • New Yorker Book on Dogs

  • Dogs and The New Yorker, a great combination
Format: Hardcover
I am a sucker for most things that deal with dogs, and then add the New Yorker, makes for a witty, sly, funny combination. Everything in this book is sourced from the monumental material printed over the years from the New Yorker, a treasure trove of all things smart, funny, socially relevant. Some of the best cartoons on social commentary ever printed come from the New Yorker, and the best cartoons about dogs and our relationship with them. (My favourite cartoon is by Charles Addams, page 247, few are better than he.) It also contains wonderful essays by John Cheever, Ronald Dahl, Ogden Nash, Anne Sexton and many others. A great addition for any book lover, or gift for a dog lover, and if you are both, even better! ... show more

  • Tedious
Format: Hardcover
My initial perception of this book was that it would be great fun. It is an anthology of many authors stories about dogs, some long and tedious.

  • New Yorker short stories
Format: Hardcover
I found this purchase such a bargain that I purchased two books. One for me and one for a dear friend. My hope is that we both can read the short stories and write back and forth. I live in NJ and he lives in PA. However, reader be aware, most New Yorker short stories are downers. I read the first story and family pet dog dies. Just so you know, the New Yorker prides it self in not liking feel good literature. LOL. The books arrived on time and in excellent condition. ... show more

  • Made a great gift
Format: Hardcover
My 86 year old Mother has had dogs all her life. She's also a person that's very hard to buy for as she's pretty much got everything she needs and then some. It was nice to see her smile when she opened this for her birthday in January. Of course, the New Yorker is witty and smart sot that was just an added bonus to getting a book about dogs. ... show more
