In 2012, DOG DAYS VOLUME ONE came seemingly out of nowhere, leaving an indeible welt across the mind of anyone who read it. The book was a raw shriek from the depths of lower-middle class American hell, that grew within a matter of months to a cult phenomenon and word-of-mouth success. Focusing on the misadventures of a ravaged and unforgiving blue-collar ne'er-do-well called "Gene Gregorits", DOG DAYS presents a bruising portrait of urban malaise and unsparing catastrophe, as its anti-hero flounders through one emergency room and vapid relationship after another, during an extended nervous breakdown. From the crack and murder blighted alleys of Detroit and Baltimore to the jungles of Costa Rica, this barely classifiable meld of prose poetry, experimental horror, crime fiction, pornography, and memoir leaves nothing to the imagination and offers humor only to the most off-kilter sensitibilities. Decried as unreadable sadism, racist polemic, and outright fraudulence, while celebrated by many as a return to the dark, dangerous waters of Louis-Ferdinand Celine and Jim Thompson, Gregorits' DOG DAYS has heralded in a bloody new chapter of insurrection in underground American letters.
