New York Times best-selling author Jim Harrison is one of America's most beloved writers, and of all his creations, Brown Dog - a bawdy, reckless, down-on-his-luck Michigan Indian - has earned cult status with readers in the more than two decades since his first appearance. For the first time, Brown Dog gathers all the Brown Dog novellas, including one never before published, into one volume - the ideal introduction (or reintroduction) to Harrison's irresistible Everyman.

In these novellas, BD rescues the preserved body of an Indian from Lake Superior's cold waters; overindulges in food, drink, and women while just scraping by in Michigan's Upper Peninsula; wanders Los Angeles in search of an ersatz Native activist who stole his bearskin; adopts two Native children; and flees the authorities then returns across the Canadian borderaboard an Indian rock band's tour bus.

I had just finished Night of the Living Rez and ironically started this one immediately after.
The travels and travails of BD are at one point sad and somewhat pathetic until they’re not. He’s very single-minded and his pursuits prove that out.
Gut-wrenching and very funny .
Not for the weak-hearted…..lots of encounters and cursing. Didn’t bother me a bit!

Brilliant and bawdy!

being familiar with the UP, I was very excited when I heard of these stories. within the first 30 minutes, there were multiple towns mispronounced. I have a cabin in the UP and am familiar with the towns the author wrote about. however, there were couple towns pronounced so incorrectly that I couldn't figure out what town it really was for quite some time. the stories were great, really enjoyed them. would have been nice if one of the narrators could have done them all. like another reviewer mentioned, one narrator gave the story an impression that BD was mentally slow, which took away from the story.

narrators/editors need to correct pronunciation

Though the narration is otherwise ok, the frequent gross mispronunciation of local place names is jarring to the ear. Jim Harrison would roll over in his grave if he heard our beautiful Mackinac Bridge called the "Mack-in-ack" Bridge instead of "Mack-in-awe". Just one of many.

Local place names are badly mangled

There are 3 novellas here. The story is great in all three. However, the first 2 are narrated by the same person who does a great job, while the last one is narrated by a different narrator who makes BD sound like a simpleton. Couldn't finish the third one.

2/3 of a good listen

Far and away too much emphasis on the protagonist's pecker. Nice descriptions of the areas and nature.

Sweet, but

I was a bit startled with some of the activities BD got up to but as the novellas progressed I started to care about this man and how his life was progressing, (not always the most appropriate word to describe his passing years), not a good man or a bad one, just one who loved his part of the world. A worthy listen.

Enter the mind of a 'natural' man

This was a perfect compilation of the BD Sagas.
I became more engrossed than ever with the character and and to focus on our differences to not become possessed by him.

Perfect Compilation

I liked it all very much! I look forward to listening to listening to another book by Jim Harrison.

A convoluted tale at best… but it definitely kept my attention!

I enjoyed Harrison's writing. Authentic and rambling, just like listening to a story told by family or friends. I was stationed in the U.P. back in the mid-80's ...and the descriptions of places I have been brought back a lot of good memories.
