When a woman unexpectedly loses her lifelong best friend and mentor, she finds herself burdened with the unwanted dog he has left behind. Her own battle against grief is intensified by the mute suffering of the dog, a huge Great Dane traumatized by the inexplicable disappearance of its master, and by the threat of eviction: dogs are prohibited in her apartment building. While others worry that grief has made her a victim of magical thinking, the woman refuses to be separated from the dog except for brief periods of time. Isolated from the rest of the world, increasingly obsessed with the dog's care, determined to read its mind and fathom its heart, she comes dangerously close to unraveling. But while troubles abound, rich and surprising rewards lie in store for both of them. Elegiac and searching, The Friend is both a meditation on loss and a celebration of human-canine devotion."--Jacket. 586 $a National Book Award winner, 2018 650 0 $a Human-animal relationships $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Female friendship $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Grief $v Fiction. 650 1 $a Human-animal relationships $v Fiction. 650 6 $a Relations homme-animal $v Romans, nouvelles, etc. 650 6 $a AmitieÌ feÌminine $v Romans, nouvelles, etc. 650 6 $a Chagrin $v Romans, nouvelles, etc. 650 7 $a 18.06 Anglo-American literature. $0 (NL-LeOCL)077611985 $2 bcl 650 7 $a FICTION $x Psychological. $2 bisacsh 650 7 $a Female friendship. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00922609 650 7 $a Grief. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00947883 650 7 $a Human-animal relationships. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00963482 650 7 $a 18.06 Anglo-American literature. $0 (NL-LeOCL)077611985 $2 nbc 655 4 $a Fiction. 655 7 $a Psychological fiction. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01726481 655 7 $a Fiction. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01423787 655 7 $a Psychological fiction. $2 lcgft 776 08 $i Online version: $a Nunez, Sigrid. $t Friend. $d New York : Riverhead Books, 2018 $z 9780735219465 $w (DLC) 2017016355 856 42 $u http://www.sigridnunez.com/ 941 $a 1 $n 1 952 $l GBPF771 $d 20240419085354.0 $n 13 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=08B78518FE4F11EEA20F3BEA453FDB2A 994 $a C0 $b IOZInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
