BOOK OF DOG
Few bonds in life carry the weight and warmth of the one between a person and their dog. Whether it begins with a wriggling puppy or a quietly dignified older animal who simply walks into your world one day, what follows is a relationship built on loyalty, laughter, and the kind of comfort that's hard to put into words. This collection tries to do exactly that. Edited by Hemali Sodhi, it brings together forty-five original pieces from some of India's most respected writers, emerging voices, and people who have spent their lives working for animal welfare. The result is a book that feels both personal and expansive. Each contribution captures something true about the dogs its author has known and loved, whether funny, tender, bittersweet, or quietly joyful. The writing moves at a good pace, story to story, and it's the kind of book you can dip into or read straight through. Contributors include Ruskin Bond, Gulzar, Anita Nair, Anuja Chauhan, Jerry Pinto, Devdutt Pattanaik, Rajdeep Sardesai, and Vikas Khanna, among many others. It makes a genuinely thoughtful gift for any dog lover, and it carries a purpose beyond the page. Every contributor gave their work without payment, and all royalties go directly to registered animal welfare charities. A collection that earns its place on the shelf.
