Four young men on a stag weekend: a summer expedition of camping, wild swimming and cooking over an open fire. As they bicker and tease, test and taunt one another, Straight Fire explores the shared histories that bind them, and the cracks in their relationships. It's story about heritage, fatherhood and masculinity which culminates in a shocking act.

Straight Fire is written by Gurnaik Johal, who won the 2021/22 Galley Beggar Press short story prize, and has recently published his first collection. We Move.

The reader is Antonio Aakeel.
