Large Animals - Jess Arndt

Daring, witty, and strange, the twelve stories in Large Animals confront what it means to have a body. Jess Arndt''s narrators battle with inhabiting a form that makes them feel deeply uncomfortable and detached, constantly challenging the limits of gender and reality. These are stories that rebel against accepted ideas of human identity and present a new normal that is as ambiguous as it is messy. Soupy, visceral, and often disconcerting, Large Animals sets a new standard for language, challenging our concepts of gender and body in a way that feels radical, insightful, and incredibly relevant.
