Synopsis
Abigail Thomas's husband Richard went out to walk the dog but only the dog came home--Richard had been struck by a car and suffered massive traumatic brain injuries that left him a different man: stricken with hallucinations, paranoia, rage, and nearly no short-term memory. In this series of sharp and unsentimental essays, Thomas examines her husband, herself, and their tenuous new relationship together. Despite his brain damage, her husband occasionally manages to say oddly poetic and meaningful phrases; similarly, despite the pain and heartbreak of A THREE DOG LIFE, there are moments of surprising hope and inspiration.

Publisher's Note
The wife of a man who was institutionalized after an accident left him violently brain damaged describes her efforts to rebuild her life in a small country town with three dogs, a process during which she struggled with a very different relationship with her husband, passed her days knitting, and found comfort in friendships and her changing perceptions about life.

A Three Dog Life




Author: Abigail Thomas
Format: Hardcover, DJ
Publisher: Harcourt 2006
ISBN: 0151012113
Size: 192 pages
Condition: New copy - see notes



When Abigail Thomas's husband, Rich, was hit by a car, his brain shattered. Subject to rages, terrors, and hallucinations, he must live the rest of his life in an institu tion. He has no memory of what he did the hour, the day, the year before. This tragedy is the ground on which Abigail had to build a new life. How she built that life is a story of great courage and great change, of moving to a small country town, of a new family composed of three dogs, knitting, and friendship, of facing down guilt and discovering gratitude. It is also about her continued relationship with Rich, a man who lives in the eternal present, and the eerie poetry of his often uncanny perceptions.

This wise, plainspoken, beautiful book enacts the truth Abigail discovered in the five years since the acci dent: You might not find meaning in disaster, but you might, with effort, make something useful of it.
