The Silence of the Dogs

Love for dogs is the source of The Silence of the Dogs, the story of two very different ones: Bonita was a street dog, while Spark was of a nobler lineage. They met and lived by chance-or destiny-in a strange, parallel world to our own.
A moving story that celebrates the marvelous nature of dogs, The Silence of the Dogs expresses the tenderness and affection they feel and suffer because of humans. Often, when considering the ferocity of man touching the lives of most creatures,, it seems that the intelligence and nobility of dogs are superior to that of humans.

With real settings, such as Caracas, Bogota, Miami, Chicago, La Crosse, and Madison, Wisconsin; and real photographs, Bonita and Spark come to life in this most emotional of stories, set in these times of human cruelty and social injustice.
