The Big New Yorker Book of Dogs

Here is a book I missed. Man’s best friend is center stage with The New Yorker’s The Big New Yorker Book of Dogs. It is beautifully illustrated in full color, features articles, fiction, humor, poems, cartoons, cover art, drafts, and drawings from the magazine’s archives. It collects from past and present greats that graced the magazine – John Cheever, Susan Orlean, Roddy Doyle, Ian Frazier, Arthur Miller, John Updike, Roald Dahl, E. B. White, A. J. Liebling, Alexandra Fuller, Jerome Groopman, Jeffrey Toobin, T. Coraghessan Boyle, Ogden Nash, Donald Barthelme, Jonathan Lethem, Mark Strand, Anne Sexton, and Cathleen Schine. A little pricey but easily reduced at Amazon.
