Description
Praise for The Dog Husband
Rose McDonagh’s spellbinding debut collection is full of vulnerable creatures often forced into dangerous proximity in transient spaces. Meanwhile, the non-human world presses down upon them, with some spine-tingling supernatural elements and a rich supporting cast of wildlife adding depth and tension to the cool, clear, compelling prose. A book of haunting power by a startling new talent. Recommended.
—David Swann, author of Season of Bright Sorrow
A stunning debut from a hugely talented writer. Each story in this collection is utterly brilliant, moving, funny, beautifully poetic, and deeply eerie.
—Devika Ponnambalam, author of I Am Not Your Eve
