"Disorienting and illuminating, playful and often penetrating, the stories of Kathy Anderson astonish. She has already established herself as a powerful new voice on the national literary scene. The stories contained in Bull are marvelous pleasures, whether taken one at a time or gobbled ravenously." —David Lynn

"Very smart, very funny. Kathy Anderson’s collection, Bull and Other Stories, reminds us that the essential story-telling element is voice and hers screams to be heard. These are bold, in your face, stories. Anderson shows us the other side of the story—characters we rarely hear from—a son who can’t stand that his father is transgendered, male funeral drivers, lesbians living and loving in slower, lower Delaware. Anderson writes with an arid, dry wit and a dark and haunting sense of humor. She is a superb, deeply rewarding writer." —Sharon Dilworth

Kathy Anderson’s short story collection, Bull and Other Stories, won the 2015 Autumn House Press Fiction Prize, was longlisted for The Story Prize, and was a finalist for the Publishing Triangle’s Edmund White Award for Debut Fiction, the Lambda Literary Awards, and the Foreword INDIES Book of the Year Award. She was previously a finalist for the Flannery O’Connor Award for Short Fiction and the New Rivers Press Many Voices Project, among other prizes and awards. A playwright and Dramatists Guild member, her plays have been produced and staged nationally and internationally. She lives in Philadelphia, PA.
