Synopsis:
The novel follows the story of Denny Swift, a race car driver and customer representative in a Seattle BMW dealership, and his dog Enzo, who believes in the Mongolian legend that a dog who is prepared will be reincarnated in his next life as a human. Enzo sets out to prepare, with The Seattle Times calling his journey ”a struggle to hone his humanness, to make sense of the good, the bad and the unthinkable.”[2]
Enzo spends most of his days watching and learning from television, gleaning what he can about his owner’s greatest passion, race car driving — and relating it to life. Enzo eventually plays a key role in Denny’s child-custody battle with his in-laws, and distills his observations of the human condition in the mantra ”that which you manifest is before you.” Enzo helps Denny throughout his life, through his ups and downs.
