Book Review of The Art of Racing in the Rain

The Art of Racing in the Rain
javabeans avatar reviewed on


A truly amazing novel! I think it goes down as one of my favorites. This book reinforced so many things I already believe about the human/pet relationship, and about how to make life meaningful. I absolutely loved the theme of reincarnation and the idea that we make our own destiny. (The car goes where your eyes go. That which you manifest is before you.) Through his simple prose, Stein has created a profoundly moving treatise on the human soul. It also happens to be a very heartwarming story about how a dog helps a family overcome tragedy. Read it!
