Dogs in a Storm

INTENDED AUDIENCE (obviously quite tongue-in-cheek, but hopefully gives some idea of the vibes!):

Literary fiction fans who also happen to be freaks; readers of George Saunders, Julia Armfield, Ottessa Moshfegh, and Colin Barrett; the girls and the gays; Bruce Springsteen devotees; seventeen-year-old's
desperate for a friend; overeducated and underemployed twenty-somethings; older people who can remember being overeducated and underemployed twenty-somethings; lovers of the Gothic; lonely housewives; former and current addicts; anyone who wants to change their life but is unsure if they're able to; anyone who feels trapped by circumstance; anyone who is worn down but is still trying.

Wild, sad, and blackly funny, ranging from south Wales to the American West, the stories in Dogs in a Storm are full of people pushing at the limits of their own lives: losers and loners, cowboys and ghosts, all quietly desperate for their worlds to change yet totally unprepared when they do.Wild, sad, and blackly funny, ranging from south Wales to the American West, the stories in Dogs in a Storm are full of people pushing at the limits of their own lives: losers and loners, cowboys and ghosts, all quietly desperate for their worlds to change yet totally unprepared when they do.
