WINNER OF THE 2012 IMPAC DUBLIN AWARDOn a cold, quiet day between Christmas & the New Year, a man`s body is found in an abandoned apartment. His friends look on, but they`re dead, too. Their bodies found in squats & sheds & alleyways across the city. Victims of a bad batch of heroin, they`re in the shadows, a chorus keeping vigil as the hours pass, paying their own particular homage as their friend`s body is taken away, examined, investigated, & cremated. All of their stories are laid out piece by broken piece through a series of fractured narratives. We meet Robert, the deceased, the only alcoholic in a sprawling group of junkies; Danny, just back from uncomfortable holidays with family, who discovers the body & futiley searches for his other friends to share the news of Robert`s death; Laura, Robert`s daughter, who stumbles into the junky`s life when she moves in with her father after years apart; Heather, who has her own place for the first time since she was a teenager; Mike, the Falklands War vet; & all the others. Theirs are stories of lives fallen through the cracks, hopes flaring & dying, love overwhelmed by a stronger need, & the havoc wrought by drugs, distress, & the disregard of the wider world. These invisible people live in a parallel reality, out of reach of basic creature comforts, like food & shelter. In their sudden deaths, it becomes clear, they are treated with more respect than they ever were in their short lives. Intense, exhilarating, & shot through with hope & fury, Even the Dogs is an intimate exploration of life at the edges of society
- littered with love, loss, despair, & a half-glimpse of redemption.
