About the Book: When Shantanu left for the United States, the promise of a new life felt quiet, isolating and cold. Then Winter arrived. A puppy adopted selfishly. Shantanu did not realize how much this decision would shape his life. Everyone loves their dogs, naturally. Every dog is a good boy, naturally. But Winter is no ordinary dog. With old soul eyes and a heart that made room for everything, Winter skipped the chaos that any puppy is entitled to. Instead, he chose a unique path, like a gentleman who had wandered in from another time, and decided he would share it with the world.
