What to expect
Visceral, speculative body horror from the author of BOY PARTS and PENANCE - the first collection from a major voice in British fiction
A teenager longs for perfect skin. A scientist tends to fragile alien flora. A young man takes the night into his own hands. Each of these characters has a desperate desire. Can any of them be sated?
Unsettling, revelatory, and laced with her signature dark humour, Eliza Clark's debut short story collection plumbs the depths of that most basic human feeling: hunger.
?'You'll love every story, swallow them whole and lick the plate clean.' Alice Slater
'No one is writing like Eliza Clark.' Nicola Dinan
'Eleven surreal, troubling and frankly gross little worlds. How I loved my time in them.' Saba Sams
'Visceral and transgressive, eerie and playful, sometimes depraved and often laugh-out-loud funny.' Colin Walsh

Hands down the best narration on an audio book I've heard. The short stories are also something else, a surprising range of genres with stories that disturb and delight in equal measure.
