The Story of Edgar Sawtelle

David Wroblewski


In the audiobook of The Story of Edgar Sawtelle, listeners are introduced to Edgar, a boy born mute who communicates through sign language. He lives a peaceful life with his parents on their farm in remote northern Wisconsin, where his family has raised a unique breed of dog, including Almondine, Edgar’s lifelong companion. However, when tragedy strikes, Edgar’s life is turned upside down, forcing him to flee into the wilderness.

As Edgar navigates the challenges of survival alongside three yearling dogs, he grapples with profound questions about home and belonging. This retelling of an ancient story explores themes of devotion, betrayal, and courage set against the backdrop of the American heartland.
