Lonely and fascinated by humanity’s foibles, the lion spends their days protecting a nearby homeless encampment, observing hikers complain about their trauma, and, in quiet moments, grappling with the complexities of their gender identity, memories of a vicious father, and the indignities of sentience. When a man-made fire engulfs the encampment, the lion is forced from the hills down into the city the hikers call “ellay.” As the lion confronts a carousel of temptations and threats, they take us on a tour that spans the cruel inequalities of Los Angeles and the toll of climate grief. But even when salvation finally seems within reach, they are forced to face down the ultimate question: Do they want to eat a person, or become one?Henry Hoke’s Open Throat is a marvel of storytelling, a universal journey through a wondrous and menacing world recounted by a lovable mountain lion. Feral and vulnerable, profound and playful, Open Throat is a star-making novel that brings the mythic to life.

Volume 1 Brooklyn"Hoke’s writing is blunt and honest, and Sticker is a collection worth keeping." Southern Review of Books"I will never forget this book." - T Kira Madden, author of Long Live the Tribe of Fatherless Girls"Funny, nostalgic, and weird in the best possible way." - Jocelyn Nicole Johnson, author of My MonticelloFeatured in Electric Lit’s “The Most Anticipated LGBTQ+ Books of 2022”Object Lessons is a series of short, beautifully designed books about the hidden lives of ordinary things.Stickers adorn our first memories, dot our notebooks and our walls, are stuck annoyingly on fruit, and accompany us into adulthood to announce our beliefs from car bumpers. They hold surprising power in their ability to define and provoke, and hold a strange steadfast presence in our age of fading physical media. Henry Hoke employs a constellation of stickers to explore queer boyhood, parental disability, and ancestral violence. A memoir in 20 stickers, Sticker is set against the backdrop of the encroaching neo-fascist presence in Hoke's hometown of Charlottesville, Virginia, which results in the fatal terrorist attack of August 12th and its national aftermath.

Nominiert für den PEN/Faulkner Award 2024In den Hügeln von Los Angeles, gleich unter dem Hollywood-Schriftzug, lebt einer der gefährlichsten und hungrigsten Bewohner der Millionenstadt: Ein einsamer Berglöwe, der die heißen und beutearmen Tage damit verbringt, den Wanderern in den Hollywood Hills bei neurotischen Gesprächen zuzuhören, ein nahegelegenes Obdachlosencamp zu bewachen und Insekten zu fressen. Als ein Feuer im Camp ihn zwingt, den Weg über die Highways nehmen, findet er sich auf einmal in der Stadt wieder, von der er schon so viel gehört hat: "Ellay". Hier begegnet er nicht nur neuen Gefahren, sondern auch einer möglichen Retterin – und einem alten Bekannten, mit dem er noch eine Rechnung offen hat …In atemloser, außergewöhnlicher Sprache beschreibt der Löwe seine Sicht auf eine schnelle, hitzige und traumatisierte Welt, und erzählt so letztendlich doch nicht von sich – sondern von uns Menschen.
