Kenny & Puppy is a neo-gothic tale set in the 1960s. Though mainly told from the Black American POV, many different ethnicities & cultures are woven into K&P’s storyline—plus politics, history, the burgeoning women’s rights movement, the civil rights movement, etc. At the core of all of this: a boy & his hellhound—in addition to other monsters (non-human & human), an international occult society & so on.
