A beautiful and compassionate rendering of Eugene O'Neill's original poem, The Last Will and Testament of an Extremely Distinguished Dog is the perfect comfort for anyone grieving the loss of their furry friend. Those who have suffered the loss of a long-lived canine companion may take some solace in the classic prose poem by Eugene ONeill, The Last Will and Testament of an Extremely Distinguished Dog. Here, the poem, written from the point of view of ONeill's beloved Dalmatian Blemie, is accompanied by Mark Andresen's equally sympathetic illustrations of dogs of various breeds.

A lovely gem of a book! A Library Thing friend sent this to me, and I am so glad she did! One very special dog, called Blemie, was nearing the end of life. O'Neill writes with depth of feeling for the many years his lovely border collie was loved and quite capable of loving in return.

The illustrations by Adrienne Yorinks are nestled inside a stunning quilt. Each 25 illustration is beautifully rendered.

O'Neill gives a beautiful telling of life with Blemie, and then the stark realization that time with Blemie is growing shorter. It is Blemie's time to be free of pain. And, the pain created by the loss is sincerely heartfelt.

Highly recommended.

Four and 1/2 Stars. ( )
