As the drink flows, our horned-up hero lusts ambivalently after men past and present, all the while looking back and licking the wounds of their chaotic, closeted youth.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePraise for \u003cem\u003eStag Do\/Fantasy Horn\u003c\/em\u003e:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e“Anna Walsh has written the perfect mythic miniature about the slide-rule of masculinity as a never-ending creation story. \u003cem\u003eStag Do\/Fantasy Horn \u003c\/em\u003eis a dream-drunk bestiary narrated by a horned and horny stag at a roving bachelor’s party. The hours tick with pints, spirits, and drugs, turning the nervy celebration into a time-tripped rutting season. Jumpy with longing and disgust, our narrator’s roughhousing mind churns memories of perfect specimens, messy breakups, and abject nights. Told with dark humor and frank strangeness, it’s touching in every sense. Powerful too.”\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e—Nate Lippens, author of \u003cem\u003eMy Dead Book \u003c\/em\u003eand \u003cem\u003eRipcord\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSelected as one of Burley Fisher's Zines of the Year 2025\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Self-published","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56997088067968,"sku":null,"price":7.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0627\/4524\/8002\/files\/StagDo.jpg?v=1765022286","url":"https:\/\/londonbookarts.org\/en-au\/products\/stag-do-fantasy-by-horn-anna-walsh","provider":"London Centre for Book Arts","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
