Summary
Leslie Schnur: The Dog Walker
It was funny how she knew more about a man she hadn't met than all the men she had met. She knew he liked to read books. Well, it was a fashionable genre of real-life adventure stories from Everest, Antarctica or Krakatau peppered with certain elements of danger such as ice, fire or sharks. True, it was about dude literature (a name that Nina came up with in response to daddy literature), but still, for God's sake, it was about books and not about sports or business pages that many men considered reading. She knew that she listened to Mozart as well as to Lenny Kravitz, whom she didn't really like, because she considered Mozart to be completely overrated and Lenny to be the most ordinary derivative, brought up on white music, but she respected the range. She also respected the fact that he occasionally went to listen to live jazz and even see a Broadway show from time to time. She knew she had a good relationship with her mom and dad. She knew that she had a beautiful dog, provided she could turn a blind eye to the fact - and she could, but only after much thought - that he didn't take it from the shelter but paid who knows how much for it to a breeder.
