Críticas:
'You'll call this sentimental - perhaps - but then a dog somehow represents the private side of life, the play side.' --Virginia Woolf
Sackville-West wrote without fuss or anxiety. --Guardian
Reseña del editor:
Sackville-West wrote without fuss or anxiety. --Guardian
'It must be a nuisance to go through life with a Father Christmas moustache like that, but no doubt the Schnauzer gets used to it.'
In Faces, Vita Sackville-West traces the origins and history of forty-four dog breeds. She reflects on their characteristics with frank humour, from the gentle-eyed Afghan, 'like somebody s elderly Aunt Lavinia, who nourishes a secret passion for the Vicar', to the Labrador Retriever, 'dear, solid, faithful lump of a dog!', and that 'docile minion' the Corgi.
Each profile is accompanied by Laelia Goehr's striking black and white photographs. Together, profile and portrait capture these canine characters in their various moods: benevolent, haughty, amused, wistful, or simply a little bit sleepy.
Charming and fascinating in equal measure, Faces is a joyful read for all dog lovers.
