The Realm of the Dog is described thusly...
"Masterfully written portraits of life; the mundane, the dangerous, the stark light of revelation, the dead and dying, hatred, love, and laughter. Each story offers a glimpse into the American Condition. Some gazing into the abyss, others adrift, forgotten, down and out in the underbelly of America, lost souls searching for a glimmer of redemption in a world gone mad. The Realm of the Dog is an unflinching exploration of the chaos, beauty, and despair of everyday life, a relentless examination of humanity in all its flawed glory. The prose crackles with electricity, capturing the frenetic energy of a world on the brink. It dares you to dive headfirst into the maelstrom, to laugh in the face of despair, and to find beauty in the wreckage."
