'Every sentence is crafted and weighted with beauty but it's the intelligence and shaping sensibility with which the story is told that make it something special.'
The Sunday Times

National Book Award finalist and bestselling author Meg Rosoff's charming, hilarious new novel about a young New Yorker's search for happiness and the two dogs who help him find it.

Jonathan Trefoil's boss is unhinged, his relationship baffling and his apartment just the wrong side of legal. His girlfriend wants to marry someone just like him – only richer and more organised with a different sense of humour. On the plus side, his two flatmates are determined to fix his life – or possibly to destroy it altogether. It's difficult to be certain as they only speak dog. Poor Jonathan. He doesn't remember life being this confusing back in the good old days before everyone expected him to act like a person. But one thing he knows for sure: if he can make it in New York City, he can make it anywhere. Will he get out of advertising, meet the girl of his dreams and figure out the gender of his secret crush? Given how it's going so far, probably not.

'Meg Rosoff has the gift of being able to talk to the reader with a directness that goes like an arrow to the heart.'
The Times

'A wonderful, captivating writer.'
The Daily Mail

'It is only occasionally that a writer comes along with a voice so stridently pure and direct and funny that you simply can't question it – you tumble willingly into its thrall.'
The Guardian
