Animal Rights and Pornography: Stories (Soft Skull ShortLit)
J. Eric Miller,
Publisher: Soft Skull Press
ISBN: 1932360336   DDC: 813.6   Edition: Paperback; 2004-07-22

Summary:

J. Eric Miller grew up in a cabin in the woods of Colorado. That
experience of silence, darkness, and depth is evident throughout the
stories in this book. Typical is "Invisible Fish," in which a night
clerk in a mall pet store tortures the animals at night. Dumbfounded,
the storeowners bludgeon to death a chimpanzee, the only animal in
the store they imagine is capable of such atrocities. An entry in the
new series Soft Skull ShortLit - Pocket Books for a New World, this
book deals with the strange and often violent manifestations of
desire with an eye to deconstructing and diffusing them. These are
edgy short stories that explore the boundless human capacity for
cruelty.
