David Menear is most often described as an edgy, urgent, gritty and sometimes \'transgressive\' short story writer with a soft heart and a sense of humour.
His character portraits can be dark, funny, smart, and uncomfortably sexual in.
In the random and weaved stories of "Swallows Playing Chicken," Menear surveys the world around him with an eye for the selfish motivations of the people near and dear to us.
You find him at that place where Salinger meets Cormac McCarthy for bourbon and biscuits.
