Walking With Zeke gets reviewed

I just noticed these new reviews on the Walking With Zeke order page. It’s particularly gratifying to know that the book is slowly making its way through the grapevine.

A neighbor saw me walking my dog one day and said, “You walking with your dog reminds me of the book Walking with Zeke by Chris Clarke… C-L-A-R-K-E. It’s one of my favorite books. It’s…(brief pause)...wow…(pauses, voice cracking with emotion) really something.” I knew then that I absolutely had to read this book and ordered it right away.

This book is a must read for anyone that loves nature and especially for those who have ever had a dog as a best friend. The descriptions of nature, of Zeke, and the author’s sincere love for his best friend are poetry - spectacularly vivid. This book is one of the most profoundly moving books I have ever read. With each turn of the page, Zeke captivated my heart more and more. At the end of the book my heart ached deeply, mourning the loss of Zeke.

I loved this book. Anyone who has loved a dog and watched it age will identify with this book. Chris is a great writer and there is a lot of nature observation in this book. It is heartfelt and if you had read Chris’ blog, you’d already know what a talented writer he is. I first “met” Zeke on Chris’ blog. As a community, we watched numbly as Chris and Becky took care of Zeke his last few months and offered what solace we could. The book is a testament to his love for Zeke.

    Yep.

    That’s all; just “yep.”  Anything further would be incrementally demeaning.
