Patricia Highsmith is unafraid to admit that human beings can have really uncharitable thoughts. But here is a love story and she illuminates the way a person can fall in love, and how this can change a life (or two). The suspense that builds steadily and urgently is about the exquisite longing one person feels for another---and then it becomes about whether this particular love can survive. In 1950s New York City a woman falling for a woman was considered fairly impossible.

It's in Japan's snow country during WWII, a beautiful & isolated setting, that we learn the story of Morie Sawataishi, a fierce individualist who refused to give up an Akita dog to the war effort. By the time of the Japanese surrender in 1945, there were only 16 Akitas left in the entire country, but through his perseverance & passion, he almost singlehandedly saved a breed that today has grown wildly popular.
