About the Author      Dan Kavanagh was born in County Sligo in 1946. Having devoted his adolescence to truancy, venery and petty theft, he left home at seventeen and signed on as a deckhand on a Liberian tanker. After jumping ship at Montevideo, he roamed across the Americas taking a variety of jobs: he was a steer-wrestler, a waiter-on-roller-skates at a drive-in eatery in Tucson, and a bouncer in a gay bar in San Francisco. He is currently working in London at jobs he declines to specify, and lives in north Islington.","brand":"Orion (an Imprint of The Orion Publishing Group Ltd )","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":40145703010389,"sku":"9781409150275N","price":9.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2481\/5790\/products\/d3ebec01-3c40-4b4e-a3c7-60208f7069a5.jpg?v=1656605049","url":"https:\/\/smeikalbooks.co.uk\/en-us\/products\/going-to-the-dogs","provider":"smeikalbooks","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
