Description

Dirty Work is a novel about San Francisco and its people. The beginning of the novel coincides in time with the Vampire Saga. But if there, all three books describe events that altogether unfold over two months, here the events span six years. The main character, Charlie Asher, is an antique dealer. And he is also Death.

From the performer

I should say that I wanted to record this book from the very beginning, from the very first acquaintance with Moore’s work. Partly because, being a beta male myself, I feel sympathy for the main character :-)!
Partly because some of the twists and circumstances of his life also happen to me, and for me things became clearer. (about relationships with parents). And his attitude toward the dying is very appealing—projected by the author from himself and from his own circumstances—something that becomes clear at the end of the book in his traditional acknowledgments to those who helped it come into being.
But I won’t retell the plot. Why? You know everything already: profanity, sex, drugs, hellish creations, and so on. And in this case, also the upbringing of a baby daughter… Oh, and the Emperor of San Francisco!
