Different Beasts

What does it mean to be both human and monster? Shape-shifting waifs, haunted stuffies, and mutant angels all come to life in this visceral collection. So too do broken soldiers, disgraced politicians, and tired parents -- human beasts each struggling to contain the animal within.
