Product Description
DOGS is a short story anthology. Despite its title, the 'alpha males' featured are all Homo Sapiens - men with violent tendencies and pack mentalities, who often display misogynist, racist or homophobic attitudes. For all that this fiction explores life's often darker extremes, with themes including war crimes, domestic abuse, street violence and drug problems, there is always a sense of hope and the inevitable triumph of the human spirit.
The stories are set in Edinburgh, Glasgow, Manchester and Musselburgh.
"An eclectic expose of the dark underbelly of Scottish culture and modern living. In short, another top read from the ever consistent pen of Mark Fleming, a real talent on the fringe of Edinburgh". (Bobby Smith, Author of 'One Love, Two Colours').
