Reading Filthy Animals is a cathartic and deeply humanizing experience unlike anything I’ve encountered before. Brandon Taylor has an incredible talent for taking the pain, fear, and sadness of life and laying them bare on a page. Taylor pulls at the deep anxieties in each of us and in doing so reminds the reader of their place in a greater story.
