'In this, his debut collection of short stories, Brennig Davies writes with sensitivity and wit about the human condition in the twenty-first century. There’s love and desire here, the Lone Ranger, Bruce Springsteen, Dostoevsky, Kafka, and Joyce, all bound up in the poetic prose of a prize-winner. A genuine discovery.' – Daryl Leeworthy
'There are phantasmagoric depictions, powerful metaphors of yearning, and absorbing knots of reciprocity, often webbed around love. Where Davies’s talent will take him next will be fascinating to discover.' – Niall Griffiths, Nation. Cymru
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.
