Famous Writers with Dogs: Langston Hughes


Writers need inspiration somewhere in life, and for many that inspiration comes from their pet dogs.

This is a running series where we post pictures of famous writers with their canine companions--the cute, the cuddly, the creepy. And that's just the writers.


Today:  Langston Hughes


This looks like an ad for some off-brand cologne for men, the type that's sold at a suburban mall kiosk, where the bottles say "Tuscany," but the smells say "Tampa."

The old saying is dogs look like their owners. But in this case, what if the dog looks like Langston Hughes' poetry? Lean, stately, and more beautiful than your own?
