Overview

Are you sitting nicely? Good. Let's discover exactly what happened after twosuperstar Labradors chewed up the lockdown internet and found it really quitetasty. He's not kept a diary for decades but here, in DOG DAYS, Andrew Cotter drawsinspiration from the great Samuel Pepys; like him, he bears witness to theextraordinary everyday as the world tilts on its axis in our own unsettling era.And so, with Olive and Mabel at his side - actually, dawdling in the long grass orsleeping upside down - Andrew takes a clear-eyed, often hilarious walk through ayear that encompasses all of life from the crushingly mundane to the decidedly odd. Followed by whispers of 'Is that really Olive and Mabel?' - not to mention theoccasional Hollywood approach - the three of them pad around literary festivals,breakfast TV, live radio and even an appearance on Good Morning America. Slightlybemused by their fame, Andrew not only pitches up in the iconic Mastermind chair,but makes a return to sports broadcasting to find that it has become rather strangeas well. But, always, his pair of utterly endearing, endlessly optimistic and eternally hungrycanine companions show just how precious our time is. Especially our time spent inthe devoted company of dogs. For fans new and old, this witty, insightful account ofa year like no other is an unmissable treat.
