Once upon a time in Provence, Peter Mayle adopted a dog of uncertain origins and dubious hunting skills and gave him a nameBoy. Now he gives this canny canine a voice in an irresistible memoir that proves that the best vantage point for observing life may well be on all fours.As Boy recounts his progress from an overcrowded maternal bosom to unchallenged mastery of the Mayle household, he tells us why dogs are drawn to humans (our most convenient support system) and chickens (that happy combination of sport and nourishment). We share in his amorous dalliances, his runins with French plumbers and cats, and in the tidbits (both conversational and edible) of his owners dinner parties. Enhanced by fiftynine splendidly whimsical drawings by Edward Koren, A Dogs Life gives us all the delights we expect from any book by Peter Maylepedigree prose, biting wit, and a keen nose for the fragrance of civilizationtogether with the insouciant wisdom of which only a dog (and probably only Peter Mayles dog) is capable.
