Wednesday 19 February 2020 / Leave a Comment


Neil Randall and Cephalopress are delighted to confirm the release date for Bestial Burdens - 01/04/2020. Both author and publisher are hugely excited by the prospect of unleashing such a controversial and thought-provoking book on the reading public!

To give you a better idea of what the story is about, here's the blurb from the back of the book:


Therapist Shaun Fox runs a successful creative writing programme. A modern, free-thinking man, unfettered by social convention, he has many sexual partners, and avoids long-term commitment at all costs. But his private life is taking a darker turn. Increasingly, he’s drawn to damaged, vulnerable women, women he can manipulate into becoming no more than sexual objects, women he has no genuine feelings for, until he’s left feeling cold and empty inside. 

When ex-porn star Lucas McGoldrick is referred to him following a botched suicide attempt, Fox begins to see worrying parallels between his own narcissistic lifestyle and the life his new client used to live. Through a series of creative writing assignments and therapy sessions, Fox learns of McGoldrick’s own sexual odyssey, from tender adolescent innocence into a nightmare of pornography, violence and addiction.

Refusing to acknowledge his failings, both personal and professional, Fox embarks upon an illicit affair with a married woman, and is finally forced to confront the essential truths surrounding all human relationships.

If you can't wait until the 1st of April, why not read Neil's short story The Case of the Crocodile Man, now featured on the Cephalopress website:
