To Kill the River-Beast

By Peter Storey

To Kill the River-Beast is the most comprehensive collection of Peter Storey's work to date. Comprised of stories and poems written from 2010-2015, River-Beast exhibits Storey's waxing command of his story-telling ability, the beginning and development of his rebellion against established literary thought, and the experiments with form and content that led to his creation of the Poesta as a new literary medium. Including popular stories such as Errand of Mercy and The First Earthling on Mars, as well as his wild, desperate poetry, such as Behold the Switchblade , River-Beast combines old favorites with never-before-seen work. Written while living and working in Wyoming, the South Pole, Brooklyn, Washington D.C., Boston, Albuquerque, and Chicago, these stories tell of love and madness, quiet hope and savage rage, of suburbs, spacemen, and the horror and the mercy latent in the hearts of all.
