Reviews:
‘Sensitive, playful, and every bit as charming as its subjects, Running feet, sharp noses is a modern bestiary, a fitting tribute to the fragile and dear connections we forge with animals, and their ability to capture the literary imagination.’
– Roisin Kiberd, author of The Disconnect
‘Extraordinary … Animal lovers, or indeed lovers of great, philosophical writing, will adore this book.’
