Set against a backdrop of bold, caricatured personalities, the novel chronicles the misadventures of characters whose ambitions, appetites, and vanities collide in spectacular and often absurd fashion, painting a wickedly satirical picture of a society obsessed with status and gratification.\n\nJohnson writes with a sardonic wit and an unsparing eye, dissecting the moral contradictions of his characters with surgical precision and darkly comic flair. Rooted in the tradition of British and American satirical fiction, A Low Breed presents a world where dignity is always negotiable and hypocrisy reigns supreme — leaving the reader to wonder, with gleeful unease, just which of these low breeds they recognise most in themselves.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Secondhand Stock","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49336815845595,"sku":"2026200016297-SECONDHAND","price":80.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0523\/7646\/9701\/files\/6b0c2f95-0cd3-4716-989b-20c2496af4ca.png?v=1789958677","url":"https:\/\/bookgrocer.com\/products\/2026200016297-secondhand-a-low-breed","provider":"Book Grocer","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
