A Room in Dodge City 2

Sequel to A Room in Dodge City. Book 2 in the trilogy. / / A Bildungsroman couched in a tale of folk horror and cosmic paranoia. An elegy for the declining art of cinema. The first book in the Room in Dodge City trilogy brought us a nameless drifter arriving in a bizarre Western town that might encompass all of reality. Now, our drifter considers what happens when drifting on is no longer an option. Focusing on the mysterious workings of The Dodge City Film Industry and the personality cult surrounding Blut Branson, its most legendary director, Volume 2 asks hard questions about the nature of art, fame, competition and, ultimately, the ongoing struggle to be born. A mystical inquiry into the sacred and the profane, it expands the universe of the first volume, while exploring yet-stranger territory and laying the foundation for the trilogy's apocalyptic finale.
