We'll be featuring a full length interview next week, available here. About the book:Indigenous Beasts is a chilling collection of stories from Nathan Sellyn — an extraordinary storyteller and a bold, young writer whose work is energetic, shocking and disturbing. These stories glimpse into the lives of young men who are intriguing, seductive and sometimes despicable, and are lost in their efforts to make sense of their relationships, both with women — girlfriends, mothers, strippers — and men — fathers, co-workers, dealers. These stories are raw and seething, intense with despair and depravity. They are bloody and beautiful and full of wisdom, and their pathetic heroes struggle towards some unattainable and off-kilter moral standard.
