Items related to Dogwalker
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.

Review:
"Funny and huge-hearted. . . . Reminds us how much smarter the back of the brain is than the front." -Esquire "The most outlandish and energetic writer I can think of." -David Sedaris "[Bradford's] desire to talk about the heart in a way that's not navel-gazing, but rather earnest and real, burns through. Dogwalker soars. . . ." -San Francisco Chronicle
"Anyone who's ever wondered at the weirdness of the world will be grateful for these offerings." --Entertainment Weekly "Bradford conjures weird modern-Gothic worlds that obey the carnival logic of dreams. His stories are stealthily tender and strangely moving." -Bookforum

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
