The dog is at my table

On an autumn evening, a dog appears on the doorstep of an elderly couple. While nursing the exhausted creature, Sophie Huizinga, a writer who has withdrawn from society, notices that her life is beginning to change, and she finds the strength to return to her favorite work.

“A Dog at My Table” is a book that Sophie is writing, telling us that it is possible to stick to your own choices even in a crumbling, tired world. Writing for Sophie, and for Claudie Hunzinger, is an act of resistance to the weakening body and the passage of time, an understanding of the onset of old age and approaching death.

A woman, a man and a dog are connected by a deep intimacy that gives birth to a text that erases the boundaries between fiction and reality, internal and external.
