One of Harrison's great characters
I found this book difficult to get into at first, as the narrator and the protagonist are not the same person. Their stories intersect when the former decides to interview the latter. The narrator is a writer you occasionally want to slap upside the head, and the protagonist is one of Harrison's great characters, an engineer who has worked on dams and other projects all over the world, and has suffered a terrible accident and is recuperating close to his childhood home in Michigan. The vastly different voices threw me off at first, and there are stretches in tiny print that represent the author's tape recordings, but once the protagonist starts getting into his story the book is hard to put down, even as he ricochets from one subject to another. There are a couple twists and turns, and an ending that left me with my mouth hanging open in plain admiration. This is only my second book of Harrison's prose, the first being the superb Brown Dog. Amazon had many of the ebooks on sale for $3, so I acquired a bunch, and have been enjoying myself immensely.

Impressive, Thoughtful ...........
I came to Jim Harrison's work or works rather late, having been an avid reader for almost 40 years I just recently discovered this author. And I must say that I am glad it happened this way. Jim Harrison in my opinion is not one of those universal authors that everyone will like. He has a way of story telling and character development that is different than most others. SUNDOG takes you places you didn't plan on going with people you never thought you'd meet down a road you never thought you'd go down in a way that leaves you feeling good when the trip is over.

Just great writing!
HARRISON is one of best writer of our age! It is great he left so much for us to ponder. It will take a while for me to read it all.

The sum of a man's scars.
The stories of Jim Harrison live in my mind long after a reading. Magical and evocative is not overstating this writers potential when you read his best work. This is not exactly a perfect Harrison story but it's good enough.
