Ribbed For Your Reading Pleasure

Co-author of the banned collaborative sex-horror fiction collection BoyFistGirlSuck, and Oxford resident, Hertzan Chimera is at it again with not one, not two, but FOUR new paperback releases in the States.

(PRWEB) March 12, 2004 -- 1) Animal Instincts - Publisher: Double Dragon Publishing - Format: Trade Paperback - Length: 222 pages.

Note: This book contains 32 black and white full-page illustrations. The book is 8.5" x 11" perfect-bound.

Animal Instincts started out as a concept very similar to some of the key themes in Doctor Moreaus Island of genetic freaks -- although it became more of a social than genetic study of cross pollination.

What would happen if you transplanted animal mores, needs and, yes, instincts into contemporary cultural settings. How would the reader perceive the twisted narrative? Could this animal mentality affect the way the stories were actually written. The way a panting gazelle is torn apart by hyenas, could the very fabric of the written sentence suffer grammatical shearing and tearing of structure when subjected to the animal passion of these tales?

In this jaw-dropping collection of pure animal lust you will find reflections of the horror of the whim of survival and how it could at any moment be upon us in its hordes, devouring our minds. Bears feed at salmon-fat summer beaches. A bullfighter is gutted open by his love for the joust. Crab shells hide emerging sexual swap. Macaque monkeys greet as only they know how.

It will all seem very confusing, disgusting, amoral and wrong -- and it is all you deserve.
