About book The Dog Catcher (2002)

I hadn't ever read anything by Alexei Sayle until I ran across this book at the local Salvation Army second hand shop. Being a fan of his comedic TV and audio work, I was interested to see Sayle's "serious" work, if you will. I didn't really know what to expect, but after reading the opening story "The Dog Catcher" I was hooked. These stories are not "laugh out loud" funny, there are no gags or jokes, but rather very intelligent and frequently acidic observations of humanity, really not much unlike the general focus in his standup comedy or even his TV shows. I must admit I was sceptic of the long last story, "The Mau Mau Hat", which I had no idea where it was going but delivered the payoff perfectly: a worn-out life lesson we all already know but always need to be reminded of.
