"Kind of like what might happen if Richard Brautigan had been hired to co-write an episode of Adventure Time . Scary People is playful and painful and surreally real, and great fun to read." - BRIAN EVENSON
Kyle Muntz Boeken
Kyle Muntz is de auteur van vijf romans, gericht op personages die worstelen met identiteit en existentiële crises. Zijn proza wordt gekenmerkt door gedurfde experimenten met vorm en taal, waarbij vaak genregraten worden vervaagd terwijl de donkerdere aspecten van de menselijke psyche worden onderzocht. Muntz' stijl is hypnotisch en onheilspellend, en trekt lezers mee in werelden vol verontrustende visioenen en diepe vragen over de zin van het bestaan.
The Pain Eater is the story of two brothers from Michigan reunited after the death of their father. They’ve never been close, but now they have to live together―and it gets more difficult when one discovers a strange creature, vomited from the body of a dead cat. A creature that eats human pain. It feels good: too good. Soon he wants to hurt himself more, just so the pain can be taken away. But the more the creature becomes a part of his life, the more he damages everything around him. Some wounds are too deep to ever heal.
