Beschreibung
"Yuna never wanted to adopt a dog. But with her partner in mourning-and in desperate need of a boost in morale-she gives in to his humble request. And in the grand tradition of reluctant pet owners, she and their puppy soon become inseparable. The young couple even goes so far as to relocate to soothe their new canine pal's anxiety. After all, there's nothing like a move to the country to set yourself right. Right? The idyll of a quiet life soon gives way to a surprising degree of antagonism, including clashes with long-time local residents of a different generation. The culture shock is palpable for all three urban transplants as the isolation of their new environs starts to sink in. They eventually adopt another dog, and still another-all while reckoning with the ups and downs of middle-age and childlessness in an unforgivingly traditional milieu"--
