Mothers And Dogs - Stories

The first story collection from prize-winning author Fabio Mor-bito available in English, Mothers and Dogs features fifteen tales that show the emotional extremes in seemingly trivial details and quotidian situations: two brothers worry more about a dog locked in an apartment who hasn''t been fed than they do about their dying mother; when the lights go out on a racetrack, a man''s evening jog turns into a savage battle between runners; a daughter learns to draft business letters as an homage to her mother. As he deftly explores feelings of loneliness and despair endemic in modern society, Mor-bito weaves threads of unexpected humour and lightness.
