Reviews
Oh my goodness. J. Wynn Rousuck's Please Write is not just a pleasure to read, it's a sheer delight. What a splendid, sly, daring act of imagination--a perfectly executed bildungsroman about a puppy! I laughed so often and so loudly that I managed to annoy my kind husband. I've already recommended it to friends, and will force it upon them if they don't run out and get it. No one with a heart and a sense of humor should miss this book. (I will add that I read a few pages from it to my own dog. She is no longer a puppy, but she retains vivid memories of her own puppyhood and nodded in recognition more than once.) Perfectly titled, Please Write is charming, shapely, wise, hilarious, true, and deeply satisfying. What a brilliant, lovely book. I will never forget it--and I fear I may never shut up about it, either., In Please Write, author J. Wynn Rousuck has created an intimate tale about coping with hardship and loss. She threads her tale with charm and hope and a touch of whimsy, reminding us that even in the most difficult situations, laughter is an essential antidote to worry. For comfort and companionship, look no further than the adorable Zippy, the rescue dog who helps rescue her human owner from the profound sadness of grief., With a comic reserve and an inspiring, Snoopy-esque philosophy, Winslow, a purebred Terrier, takes Zippy, a vagabond Jack Russell mix under his guiding paw in upper-class suburbia. In the form of letters to Grandma Vivienne, Winslow narrates as his little sis is undone by her energetic mischief. What do you expect from a rain-soaked scruff found beneath a Baltimore pretzel truck? You'll delight in their adventures!, "A daring feat of storytelling, Please Write is full of humor and even doggy slapstick. It also deals with real hardship. That's no accident. Author Judy Rousuck (Class of 1972) says the idea for this epistolary novel came from intense, real-life grief. 'My relationship with my mother was the greatest relationship in my life. I knew it when it was happening," she says, "and both my first and second husbands knew it.' When her mother died suddenly, Judy was devastated: 'Every day for weeks, I held my dog in my arms and wept,' she says. Turning to her mother's letters for comfort, Judy had an epiphany. 'What if I could share her voice with other people in newly created letters? I could bring her back in the room with me and with readers.' Last spring, Judy took copies of Please Write to a Wellesley class gathering in Washington, D.C. Almost immediately, a classmate wrote to say she was moved to tears reading the book on the plane home. Judy says, 'The time I spent with these characters in my head got me through really tough times, and I wanted to share their company. I hope they give some solace and humor to other people.'" Wellesley Magazine
Synopsis
An epistolary novel with a twist, Please Write chronicles the correspondence between Vivienne, the alter ego of a recently widowed Cleveland artist, and Zippy, a mixed-breed terrier rescued off the streets of Baltimore. Their letters change and enrich their lives as well as that of Zippy's owner, Pamela, a harried journalist whose life is unraveling. Combining the canine viewpoint of A Dog's Purpose with the poignant style of The Guernsey Literary Potato Peel Pie Society, Please Write, with Disney-like charm, delivers a distinctive account of coping with heartbreak and loss through the power of imagination and love., An epistolary novel with a twist, Please Write chronicles the correspondence between Vivienne, the alter ego of a recently widowed Cleveland artist, and Zippy, a mixed-breed terrier rescued off the streets of Baltimore.
