description: Sexual contact between humans and animals, commonly known as bestiality, has long been condemned by the conventions of society. Despite the dread and loathing usually associated with such conduct, the incidence of bestiality, especially in rural communities, is not as rare as most people assume. The Horseman is a completely candid, sometimes graphic, sexual autobiography of one man's struggle to come to terms with the private demon of bestiality. Mark Matthews traces his obsession with horses through his teen years, troubled marriage, his experiences as a parent, and his eventual divorce. The underlying problem and his attempt to deny it led him to drug abuse, self-loathing, and the brink of suicide, before he finally came to accept himself as he is and to leave guilt behind.
