Reader Review: Strangely enough, despite being an avid dog lover since childhood, I had never read anything by or referring to Caroline Knapp until this book. What drew me to this particular book was a lovely review in The Bark magazine. It is truly a touching story/memoir of the author's life and her interactions and memories of her best friend. This book has it all: happiness, love, and yes sadness that will have you drying your eyes by the end of the book. Overall it is a truly satisfying read and one that I will definitely visit again in the future.
NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER
They met over their dogs. Gail Caldwell and Caroline Knapp (author of Drinking: A Love Story ) became best friends, talking about everything from their love of books and their shared history of a struggle with alcohol to their relationships with men. Walking the woods of New England and rowing on the Charles River, these two private, self-reliant women created an attachment more profound than either of them could ever have foreseen. Then, several years into this remarkable connection, Knapp was diagnosed with cancer. With her signature exquisite prose, Caldwell mines the deepest levels of devotion, and courage in this gorgeous memoir about treasuring a best friend, and coming of age in midlife. Let’s Take the Long Way Home is a celebration of the profound transformations that come from intimate connection—and it affirms, once again, why Gail Caldwell is recognized as one of our bravest and most honest literary voices.
