Publisher's Synopsis
Slice at the Heart of Being is a gritty collection of stories about love and hate, destruction and redemption, revealed by an ever-present unreliable and unmistakable voice. These eleven stories portray a tortured set of characters winding their way through an American apathetic landscape of self-loathing. A man's spirituality is questioned as he endures midnight mass. A sterile unloving husband takes the reader through a guilty massage parlor experience. And the title story/opener reads as an unfinished suicide note. Andrew Blade's raw style and insight make this an essential collection for fiction fans everywhere.
