One could argue that human life is measured by BC and AD: Before Canine and After Dog. After all, as one of the first domesticated animals, dogs have played an important role in human civilization. They became our hunting partners, our bodyguards, our companions. There is little wonder why dogs so quickly earned the title of man's best friend.
As Jennifer Finney Boylan's writes in her new memoir, "My days have been numbered in dogs. Even now, when I try to take the measure of the people I have been, I count the years by the dogs I owned in each season." Good Boy traces her life, from childhood as a young boy to coming out as trans to starting a family. Boylan writes with poignancy and candor, humor and sadness.
