Why do we live with animals? thought Alvin Greenberg to himself, and he subsequently wrote these wonderfully witty poems.
Why We Live with Animals is a collection of more thansixty humorous sonnets that meditate, elaborate, equivocate and explicate on the question of why we live with animals. Pigs, cats, dogs and chickadees parade across these pages as objects of love, table conversation, protectors, companions, and spectators of our souls. Complemented by original wood engravings by Gaylord Schanilec, this book is the perfect gift for the literate animal lover.
