Stories contains the two Luke Hartwell short stories that were not incorporated into his expansive novel Desire. In the first story, Michael, Ben cannot keep his mind off the handsome young wrestler sitting at the back of his world literature class. He fantasizes and fantasizes, and then he acts. The second story, Baby Self Hate, is a sultry but funny story of sex and infatuation. Cam is angry but funny, purposeful but confused, and humorous but unexpectedly profound. Although sexy and sought after, Cam sees life darkly and takes solace in fishing. His relationship with a boy he meets in therapy is a wild, unpredictable ride. Hartwell provides the book the immediacy, honesty, passion, and tension that his readers have come to expect. Both stories are amorous, hilarious, and ridiculously unusual tales by the acclaimed author of Atom Heart John Beloved, Nathan’s Story, Love Underneath, and Desire.
