PRAISE FOR HEY YOU ASSHOLES "This book feels like it was written by the lovechild of George Saunders and Seinfeld, raised in foster care, joined the military, worked a series of shit jobs, and then figured out how to write the best damn sentences you've ever heard." -- Aaron Burch, author of Year of the Buffalo "Humorous, down to earth, a touch pleasantly deranged. Fans of Charles Bukowski, John Fante, and Lucia Berlin will get an updated modern kick out of how Seibel transforms the mundane into something profound." --Bud Smith, author of Teenager and Double Bird "Kyle Seibel has such a strange, delightful mind. His stories are funny and wild, full of unexpected turns and bizarre images, while never losing sight of that which is deeply and mysteriously human." --Phil Klay, author of Redeployment "When I read one of Kyle Seibel's stories, I feel like I've met the characters: they are as rounded as they are real, as surprising as they are peculiar. He knows that small interactions are endlessly interesting, and in Kyle's seamless skill, the technicalities of plot, setting and character are considered and elegant. The characters in Kyle's stories are not heroes: some of them are awful; some assholes; some are ravaged by ambition or insecurity; many are hilarious; all believable; all brilliant.

" --Pádraig Ó Tuama, host and author of Poetry Unbound (On Being Studios and WW Norton 2022) "Kyle Seibel has been there, done that, and he writes about it with understanded humor, beauty, and lyricism. His stories are provocative and profound, his flawed characters portrayed with nuance and empathy. The result is a book that's massively enjoyable--and deeply indelible." --Davy Rothbard, author of My Heart is an Idiot , creator of Found Magazine.
