THE STORY: Somewhere in America, a man fantasizes about his best friend's wife. In another city, a young housewife momentarily loses sight of her children. Elsewhere, a politician relives a tragic second that forever changed his life, and a mother wonders where her teenage son got the gun. And in one town, a man on the verge of committing a horrific act of violence watches all this unfold on his TV screen. A HUMAN INTEREST STORY (OR THE GORY DETAILS AND ALL) is an unflinching portrait of an America obsessed with voyeurism. This mesmerizing, funny and frightening work asks the question: Is the imagination more cruel and unforgiving than reality?

a writer of great richness and technical brilliance. Not everyone will want to walk on the dark side with him, but those with the stomach for it will not be disappointed
brilliant writing." - Chicago Sun Times. "Evocative fury of Murillo's writing." - LA Times. "Impressively articulate text." - Windy City Times.
