Being a compulsive, ah, entangler of information about myself, I quite
love this line from the jacket copy, especially since by the time it
was published, he had been away from Westport for many years. I think
the dog was named Benny, and was a Schnauzer, but I could be wrong on
that one. (I still can't forgive him for running his dachshund, Joey,
over with his tractor; apparently the man is a menace behind the wheel
of a vehicle.)
