Raw Emotion is a debut collection of 18 short stories that deal with a range of feelings that are raw to the core and show human relationships in their best and worst forms. Love, loathing, addiction, hatred, music, death and laughter are all featured and explored as the human psyche sheds its soul in a daily world of grit and grime. Jason Barnett's stories are explored and developed as he dissects his characters in ways that highlight and embrace their flaws. His sharp humour and dissection of character is both uplifting and refreshing and he doesn't hold back in describing the emotions that live deep down in our soul.
