Road Song: A Memoir

Natalie Kusz was attacked by an Alaskan sled dog that tore away half of her face. She wasn't expected to live, but she survived, though she lost an eye and faced grueling years of surgery, recovery, and reconstruction. Natalie tells her story in such a way that no reader can fail to find it heartrending and unforgettable.
