" In Doggy Bag: Season 1, the author of ‘impurities’ brings the rules of engagement for television to literature. So incredibly well-packaged, Djian is undoubtedly one step ahead of the rest. " -- ELLE

Inspired by such television series as Six Feet Under and Desperate Housewives, Djian, referred to by some as the most American of French authors, masterfully brings the television format to literature while following the complicated lives of the dysfunctional Sollens family. The bet has already paid off with the success of ‘Season 1’ (more than 60,OOO copies sold in France) of this planned 6 season series.

Edith left without a trace when Marc and David nearly killed each other over her. Over the years, the brothers reconciled and now work together at the family’s used car lot.
