One of my favorite reads in the last several months. Not much plot for a novel. Reads more like a memoir, but I like the voice of the narrator and was more than happy to exists in her life and musing for several days. The "friend" from the title is probably the man who has recently committed suicide, her former writing teacher. But it could also be the great dane she inherits from him. A reflection on loss and grief and caring for another creature, in this case her aging companion. It's a beautifully written novel.
