More about the book

Exploring themes of love and spirituality, the memoir recounts Hilary Hart's transformative journey with her dying dog, Pearlie. After being turned away from her Sufi teacher, Hilary learns profound lessons from her one-eyed, scraggly terrier, who serves as a symbol of resilience against patriarchal norms. Through their bond, she confronts her own prejudices and desires, ultimately discovering a deeper connection to the divine within herself and the world around her.
