"Humans" & "Animals"

What is "Humans" & "Animals"? An apolitical, fragmented "Animal Farm'-like short story collection exploring the environmental, physical, psychological and emotional complications of human cravings - for both "humans" and "animals". Why write it? I always find myself in someone else's shoes. Here - in an attempt to get out, or at least show how it is to be inside me - I have injected human emotions and thoughts, wants and needs, virtues and vices onto animals. It's partly a humanization of animals, partly an animalization of humans. It's a way to put our own thoughts, feelings, actions, goals and failures - along with the unimaginable collateral damage - into perspective. I guess time will tell if I'll walk around in your shoes, my own or completely barefooted. Examples of what you'll find? There's a pig finding itself in a "concentration camp" on an industrial farm. There's a cat addicted to catnip and cast away by the world. There's a lecture about the meaning of life from the last dodo in the world. There's vast and conflicting conspiracies in the world of lemmings. And much more. Why read it? For the love of animals. To try to guess the animal, or find the animal it is to you. To go inside yourself and the human- and animal-condition. To step outside yourself and, hopefully, see everything a little bit clearer.
