Speck arrived in Bragg’s life at a moment when illness had left him lethargic and melancholy--but Speck is not a good boy. He is a terrible boy who spends his days playing chicken with the FedEx man and picking fights with livestock. Written with Bragg's inimitable blend of tenderness and sorrow, humor and grit, The Speckled Beauty captures the sustaining devotion between two damaged creatures who need each other to heal.
