"David LanglinaisWhat Happened to All the Dogs? propels the reader through tales of loss and redemption, stories permeated with honesty, humor and humidity. As with his debut collection, Duck Thief and Other Stories, two-time Pushcart Prize-nominated author David Langlinais pulls back the curtain on the lives of everyday people coping with challenges as heavy as summer air hanging thick over a Louisiana bayou. Langlinais works the same literary vein as short story writers Tim Gautreaux and Chris Offutt by weaving his tales with an engaging, authentic voice that's refreshingly candid and straightforward."
