Everybody Died, So I Got a Dog by Emily Dean | Waterstones
Growing up with the Deans was a fabulous training ground for many ignoring unpaid bills, being the most entertaining guest at dinner, deconstructing poetry. It was never home for the dog Emily craved. They have routines, their houses are tidy, they budget ‘for phone bills, insurance policies and food for the freezer’. And with their dog, ‘the whole family would settle down to watch David Attenborough’s Life On Earth before bedtime’.While our mutual obsession with dogs will be a theme throughout, we’re also here to talk about Emily’s book, Everybody Died, So I Got A Dog. Emily is now the only survivor of this extraordinary family — her parents died three years after her sister. The title of her funny, sparklingly honest and heart-breaking memoir pulls no punches. It is a defiant statement that refuses to tiptoe around grief. It contains misery and happiness in one phrase.

Emily Dean (pictured) who is now the only surviving member of an extraordinary family shares her upbringing in a disorganised Bohemian household in a new memoir Geri Horner wears vintage goggles and poses next to a yellow plane as she transforms into aviation icon Amelia Earhart for Halloween From heartthrob to hair flop! Gerard Butler, 53, sports an unflattering blond hairpiece as he films new crime thriller In The Hand Of Dante in RomeThis book was an incredible, raw, emotional and open insight into the author’s life. It examines the messiness of families, the roles we play (and assume) and so much more. There is wisdom contained in this book that we can all benefit from, dog lover/dog owner/dog family/dog hater alike. Her Dad was a famous TV personality and her mother an actress. Her relationship with both of them throughout the years was turbulent at times. “It was a peripatetic, slightly unstable childhood. Lot’s of bohemian artists, who were great fun to be around, but if you wan’t fish fingers on the table at 5pm, they’re not your people.” In contrast to this, Emily’s relationship with her sister Rachael meant more than anything in the world to her “I called my sister my lighthouse, she was home.”

When Emily Dean was young, she dreamed of having a dog, but, most of all, of living in a ‘dog family’. The sort of families that have dogs, you see, are normal.

Emily’s father was a BBC broadcaster and her mother an actor. She and her sister Rachel survived a childhood of intellectual chaos. Bailiffs were invited in for tea, final demands were used as coasters and granny was on amphetamines. Through all of this, “dog families” represented the stable family life that Emily craved and that Rachel built around herself as an adult. I never thought I’d read something where somebody *got* it. Where somebody knew that there was no ‘getting over it’ and getting better. That there would always be bad days and good days and sad days and happy days. That there was a long and painful road towards accepting it but never getting over it, never forgetting or brushing it aside or being magically healed from the grief and trauma.
