OverviewThe tragicomic story of writer, podcaster, radio presenter Emily Dean's lifelong dream of owning a dog - and what it took to make it come true. Emily Dean had a mad, bohemian childhood growing up with her actor mother and broadcaster father in a rented Gothic folly wreathed in cigarette smoke where final demand invoices were coasters for champagne flutes and the Sex Pistols filmed in her room upstairs. She craved a dog - and a normal life. But it wasn't until the tragic death of her sister Rachael, at only 43 - and the help of Rachael's dog Giggle - that Emily began to believe that she really could have a dog of her own. Losing both her parents within three short years of her sister left Emily devastated. Emerging from grief, she finally granted herself the lifelong wish of owning a puppy - an adorable shih tzu called Ray. A memoir of loss and grief, EVERYBODY DIED, SO I GOT A DOG is also about discovering laughter, hope and healing in the smallest of places.
