Product Description

Product Description

An outstanding debut from a young American writer and protege of Dave Eggers and Zadie Smith, who will appeal to many readers of both. DOGWALKER evokes a world of misfits, of bizarre circumstance and horrific outcomes. With his gift for deadpan dialogue and outrageous incident, and a knack for revealing innocence in the midst of profound depravity, Arthur Bradford offers up a blazingly funny, wholly original, and unexpectedly compassionate vision.


From the Publisher

Praise for Dogwalker by Arthur Bradford: 'These are stories short enough and perfect enough to pass directly to whomever is sat next to you, on the train or in bed, and watch them as they read it.' - The Independent

'I’m filled with joy when I read his work' - Zadie Smith in The Independent on Sunday

'The maddest collection of short stories you’ll read all year'- I-D

'They’ll leave you with your tail wagging and yapping for more'- Tatler

'Brilliantly written vignettes of the underworld'- Marie Claire

'They have a humour and charm that, without preaching, subtly makes the reader aware of how unnatural our own attutide can be to nonconformity and physical difference'- Time Out

5.0 out of 5 stars Like talking to your coolest friend, 28 Nov 2001
By A Customer
Arthur Bradford's short stories make for compulsive reading. His language and humour highlights every story making it as vivid as if he were actually sitting next to you in a bar, whisky in hand, animated and excited to tell you the WEIRDEST thing.

5.0 out of 5 stars Very strange - very funny and very very good, 27 Nov 2001
By A Customer
I read the book in one sitting it is marvellous. Well written with an otherworldly style that is almost childish and all the more delicious for never knowing what comes next.

5.0 out of 5 stars welcome to the wonderful world of Arthur Bradford, 23 Nov 2001
By A Customer
I've just finished this book of brilliant stories and my head is still buzzing with its crazy scenes. Bradford writes about his weird world in which dogs and disabilities and strange hybrids are part of normal life. His is a totally original vision - such a relief after reading so many boring slice o' life novels.
