Emotive

De: Kevin Laymon

Narrado por: George Kuch

Emotive is a tale of life, love, compassion, and the pursuit of happiness as told through the eyes of the story's narrator, Linus. Linus is a puppy living in a small city located in the rolling hillsides of upstate New York. As the abnormalities of his owner Sam are all he knows since birth, he gains a perspective of unyielding acceptance and love towards the man who feeds him, takes him to the park, and murders women in his basement.

Unique story from a great perspective.

I’m a huge dog lover so the story being from linus’ perspective was great. The amalgamation of crime story and pets life was uniquely amazing. I loved being able to know what Linus felt in every situation he was put it. I immersed myself into this listen and I was treated with all the feels.

"It's a dog's life."

This is not the sort of book that this reader would normally chose - I do not much like dogs, yes, there are some of us around - but I have very much enjoyed performances of the narrator, George Kuch, in the past so decided to give it a try. And am so glad that I did. It is charming and, at times, graphic in accounts of violence as well as 'accidents'; rather fanciful, perhaps, in the main protagonist's relating events from his, Linus' point of view. But it works. And the reader travels with the little dog, faithful and loving towards violent and murderous first owner, trying always to be a good boy and, later, after he had been deserted, still looking for home.
As anticipated, George Kuch was an excellent narrator, telling the story in his intimate way direct to the reader: a perfect fit for this book.

I thoroughly enjoyed Emotive and must warmly thank the rights holder who, at my request, freely gifted me a complimentary copy via Audiobook Boom. Easy to read, this is a tale which will stay with me into the future: not so much the details but the emotional feelings behind it - I even feel more generously inclined towards dogs now, at least in tbeory. So this is a book I can recommend to all, even those whose liking for real life canines is not particularly strong.

EXCELLENT READ!

Child kidnapping and torture

Not my cup of tea.

George Kuch is a good narrator.
