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.

INTENDED AUDIENCE:

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.
