I Feed Her to the Beast and the Beast Is Me

by Jamison Shea

Description

In a world where hunger is both literal and metaphorical, a narrator confronts the unsettling bargain at the heart of their life: the urge to consume, to control, and to survive by feeding something darker than they can name. As relationships fray and choices tighten into a single, irreversible path, the story follows the slow realization that the “beast” is not outside the self—it is the self, reflected back through fear, desire, and consequence. With sharp psychological insight and a darkly intimate voice, this book explores themes of addiction, self-deception, moral responsibility, and the cost of denying one’s own nature. Jamison Shea’s style blends visceral intensity with lyrical unease, creating a haunting, character-driven journey that lingers long after the final page.
