In the Dust by Takani Dillon

In the Dust is the debut novella from Australian writer Takani Dillon.

The story is of Eddy Sky, a teenage misanthrope who firmly believes that the rules of society should not apply to him, nor to any truly free individual. Disillusioned by his upper-class family, his small-town Australia surroundings and the modern world in general, he leaves for the city, determined to make his own way & leave his own mark. Once there, he enters a strange world of corporate crime, where even drug dealers wear suits.

"A stunning exploration of character and rebellion, In the Dust is a marvellous accomplishment, unlike anything else being published today. Highly recommended"

"A letter of protest from a generation born at the end of history"

Read an excerpt:

It was a Saturday night, and the middling cohort had scurried out of their rat holes to congregate in their friendly neighbourhood pub, as had all their kind across the land from Byron to Broome. They sat in groups and drowned the memories of their long, hard week. They lived for the weekend, suffering five days for the merriment of two. They wore their beer guts proudly and married feeble women with whom they could bestow upon the world a litter of abhorrent little runts, thus continuing the cycle. It’s a crying shame not more of them contracted gout. 

I walked the streets of my hometown, admonishing every inch, and upon arriving at this grand establishment, stood outside and looked in at the animals.
