A Three Dog Life

A Memoir

Abigail Thomas

When Abigail Thomas’ husband, Rich, was hit by a car, his brain shattered. Subject to rages, terrors and hallucinations, he must live the rest of his life in an institution. How Abigail builds a new life is a story of great courage. A Three Dog Life is also about her relationship with Rich, a man who lives in the eternal present, and the eerie poetry of his uncanny perceptions.

“The best memoir I have ever read. It’s sad, terrifying and scorchingly honest. It’s also a testament to the power of love ... This book is a punch to the heart. Read it.” —Stephen King

Abigail Thomas (New York) is the author of Safekeeping, a memoir, as well as a novel and two story collections.
