  1. 1. Getting It In The Head

    Getting It In The Head is a collection of sixteen stories that deal with the harsh violence of modern life. The narratives portray a world where kids make bombs, sculptors dismember themselves for art, and layabouts murder their parents. The pieces examine how brutality and self-destruction permeate ordinary domestic life and creative practice in contemporary settings.
