Description "From 1916 to 2006 Will, Jack and Alousha hold post in a bunker station and must do battle for their sanity, territory and humanity through a never-ending conflict. As the battle keeps shifting, the enemy changes, and the sky continues to fall...
Drawing on the traditions of absurdist writers Camus, Beckett, and Ionesco, and on the philosophies of Hume and Schopenhauer, Dogfall is a dark existential paean to the madness of war and the animal yearning for annihilation that lies deep in the shadow of every man's heart."
