THE NEW YORKERS: A NOVEL

Book ID/图书代码： 04640007B13087

English Summary/英文概要： Dogs bring people together unexpectedly, people who would otherwise never meet. And the dogs act as cupids for the quiet, struggling, sometimes lonely, eccentric people, the old and the young, male and female; Walking her dog, Beatrice, Jody falls under the spell of Everett’s bewitching smile. Everett begins to appreciate his post divorce life only when he falls in love with Howdy, Polly’s puppy. Polly lives with her brother, George, and wants him to fall in love. George isn’t so much looking for a love life as for life direction, and Howdy leads him right to it. Doris hates the trash on her block, she hates the pee on her SUV’s large tires, and, above all, she hates dogs. That is, until she gets one of her own.
In The New Yorkers, as in life, canine companions compel their masters to go outside of themselves, to take part in the community they live in, to make friends, and, sometimes, to fall in love.

Chinese Summary/中文概要： 狗总是让人们不期而遇，不然有些人可能永远都不会相遇。对于那些内向、努力拼搏、孤独、怪异、的老人、年轻人、男人、女人来说，狗有时扮演着丘比特的角色；Beatrice遛狗时被Everett迷人的笑容迷住了。当Everett爱上Polly的小狗Howdy时，他也对过去失败的婚姻渐渐释怀。Polly与他的兄弟George住在一起，并十分希望George能够快点找到爱人。而George并不把恋爱当成人生最重要的事，Howdy的出现帮他找到了真正的缘分。Doris对街道散布的垃圾非常不满，更讨厌她那运动型汽车轮胎处的黄斑便迹，综合以上观点，她十分的讨厌狗。直到Doris有了条自己的狗后，她的观点开始发生了改变。
在纽约，正如所有人的生活一样，人们的狗伴侣强迫他们的主人走出户外，参加各种在他们所居住地方的户外和社团活动，帮助他们交到朋友，找到爱人。
