Searching for Sam

Summary: "Mathieu is a young homeless man. His main companion is his dog Sam, a pitbull, who helps keep him alive after his life takes a tragic turn. When Sam disappears, Mathieu's frantic search to find her brings him into confrontation with the secrets of his own past and the pain and grief that drove him onto the street. The novel is a monologue from Mathieu's point of view, a sort of confessional in which Mathieu opens up to the reader. In flashbacks to his past, we discover just what he has lost, and how he has ended up where he is. In this book about survivors, Bienvenu takes a tender look at the underside of our cities, and the people that get left behind."--
