She spends her days helping others find happiness, but her own family relationships are tense and frayed. Estranged from both her sister, April, and her ex-husband, Lawrence, Ester wants to fall in love again. Meanwhile, April is struggling through her own directionless life; Lawrence’s reckless past decisions are catching up with him; and Ester and April's mother, Hilary, is about to make a choice that will profoundly affect them all. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eTaking place largely over one rainy day in Sydney, and rendered with the evocative and powerful prose Blain is known for, \u003ci\u003eBetween a Wolf and a Dog\u003c\/i\u003e is a celebration of the best in all of us  our capacity to live in the face of ordinary sorrows, and to draw strength from the transformative power of art.
