The book immerses readers in a brutal landscape filled with fighters, addicts, and gamblers. The title story features a boxer whose broken hand leads him into unregulated, life-or-death matches, highlighting the harsh realities of survival over sport. Another tale, "A Mean Utility," delves into the grim world of dogfighting, where breeds like Rottweilers and pit bulls engage in deadly battles. Through vivid and unflinching prose, Davidson explores themes of desperation and the primal instincts that drive individuals to fight against overwhelming odds.
