**"[A] comic masterpiece." **--People magazine's "Book of the

"A charming comedy on love, friendship, and the surprising influence of
man's best friend." --Harper's Bazaar
National Book Award finalist and bestselling author Meg Rosoff's
charming, hilarious new novel about a young New Yorker's search for
happiness and the two dogs who help him find it--the perfect
summer read
Jonathan Trefoil's boss is unhinged, his relationship baffling, and his
apartment just the wrong side of legal. His girlfriend wants to marry
someone just like him--only richer and with a different sense of humor.
He doesn't remember life being this confusing, back before everyone
expected him to act like a grown-up.
When his brother asks him to look after his dogs, Jonathan's world view
begins to shift. Could a border collie and a cocker spaniel hold the key
to life, the universe, and everything? Their sly maneuvering on daily
walks and visits to the alluring vet suggest that human emotional
intelligence may not be top dog after all.
A funny, wise romantic comedy set in Manhattan, Jonathan Unleashed is
a story of tangled relationships, friendships, and dogs. Rosoff's novel
is for anyone wondering what to be when they grow up, and how on earth
to get there.
