Alex Mindt is the author of a book of stories, Male of the Species, published by Delphinium Books in 2007.

"The stories in Alex Mindt's debut collection begin at a turning point in the lives of his characters and then proceed, with supreme skill and unerring pitch, to a miraculous moment of quiet revelation and grace, when their full humanity is revealed and our understanding of human nature is enlarged. This Chekhovian empathy for the wide-ranging cast of people who make up today's America is a rare gift, and one of the highest order. These unforgettable stories already feel like classics." --Jaime Manrique
