Neal crafts an unfiltered narrative tracing a queer life shaped by class, desire, dysfunction, and survival against the backdrop of late-stage American capitalism.This collection explores:-desire and queer identity formation-family trauma and emotionally charged relationships-class, masculinity, and power-addiction, violence, and survival-queer grit and resilience in the face of weaponized hateWritten with wicked humor, emotional intensity, and unapologetic candor, minis.

It redraws the lines between fact and fiction to capture the sweaty, often messy realities we're taught not to discuss in polite company.Because some stories don't clean up nicely.And the only way to understand them... is to take one more bite.
