Biography: Freelance editor and published poet, BITCH OF THE YEAR is his prose debut. As a poet, he has received praise from Daljit Nagra (‘Dilger seems effortlessly to find his creative powers through things outside himself’), Simon Armitage (‘a clever poet writing crafty poems’) and the late Michael Donaghy, who said of his debut collection: ‘“Promising” doesn't do Dilger justice. He already delivers with flash and finesse.’ Andrew lives in Oxford with his wife, Sarah, and greyhound, Dash, and is writing more non-fiction.

DASH: BITCH OF THE YEAR

Memoir, 312 pages
Summersdale - April 2011

BITCH OF THE YEAR is the funny and heart-warming story of wanting the perfect dog and planning the perfect wedding. Dash is far from perfect, but that’s half the fun. The novelty of a man trying to organise his own wedding is the other half.

'Funny, moving and I highly recommend it.' -- Twiggy Lawson
