The Dog Catcher

The acclaimed BARCELONA PLATES revealed Alexei Sayle as a writer with an outstanding ability to describe contemporary life in an unusual way. Now, in his new collection THE DOG CATCHER, he brilliantly captures the morals and absurdities of our so-called ‘cool’ culture, populated by characters as recognizable as they are memorable. THE DOG CATCHER will confirm Alexei Sayle’s reputation as not only one of the great exponents of the short story genre, but also as a profound commentator on the way we live now.
