SOUTHWEST BOOKS OF THE YEAR, 2025I am a dog but I do not die at the end of this book. Who else could have written it?The human who found me is fine. She feeds me. She cuddles me. She puts a roof over my head. But I do not appreciate being held captive. Because I am a dog with the intelligence of a human. And I aim to find out why.Accompanied by Shakespeare, a Pug with the intelligence of a Pug, I run away from home, embarking on an epic quest for freedom, knowledge, and, quite possibly, revenge.Together we must survive a harsh desert of cannibalistic coyotes, stray humans, a fugitive white tiger, and one hypnotic beacon that shines from a city of sin, luring us back into so-called civilization.My name is Rousseau. I seek the truth. Even if it means I lose my mind...Full of imagination and humor, The Second-Smartest Dog That Ever Lived is a dog book like no other, with a canine narrator who questions the value of human society, and a dog’s place within it.Readers are saying:★★★★★ 'I did not expect the complexity, the humor, the philosophy, and the humanness that exist in these pages! But don’t be fooled-this is no boring, philosophical story. While the themes are underlying, the main force of this novel is action and movement.'★★★★★ 'By far the best dog story I’ve ever read.'★★★★★ 'A very impressive debut that works on a variety of levels.'★★★★★ 'Insanely creative.'
