Editorial Reviews

Editorial Reviews

“Christopher Welch maintains Enzo’s commonsense ‘voice’ while offering subtle shadings to the voices of the humans in his life. The more any human character strays from honesty of the heart, the more caricature Welch’s Enzo projects in his narration. The effect enables the listener to completely suspend disbelief of a storytelling mutt. On the track, as in life, Enzo knows that ‘to be a champion, you must give yourself over to the race.’ Stein and Welch have given themselves over to the story in a championship production. Winner of the AudioFile Earphones Award and a 2009 Audies Award finalist.” —AudioFile
“I savored Garth Stein’s The Art of Racing in the Rain for many reasons: a dog who speaks, the thrill of competitive racing, a heart-tugging story line, and—best of all—the fact that it is a meditation on humility and hope in the face of despair.” —Wally Lamb, #1 New York Times bestselling author
“Fans of Marley & Me, rejoice.” —Entertainment Weekly 
“If you’ve ever wondered what your dog is thinking, Stein's third novel offers an answer.”   —Publishers Weekly
