Summary The cult debut from incendiary star Eliza Clark, now including the short story ‘Goth GF’. ‘Hallucinogenic, electric and sharp.’ Jessica Andrews ‘Will make most readers howl with laughter and/or shut their eyes in horror.’ Guardian ‘A carnival funhouse ride: terrifying, feverish, hilarious.’ Julia Armfield Irina is in a rut. She obsessively takes explicit photographs of average-looking men she scouts from the streets of Newcastle while her dead-end bar job slips away; she’s more interested in drugs, alcohol, and extreme cinema. When she’s offered an exhibition at a fashionable London gallery which promises to revive her career in the art world, it should feel like an escape. But the news triggers a self-destructive tailspin, drawing in her obsessive best friend and a shy young man from her local supermarket who has attracted her attention . . . Boy Parts is the incendiary debut novel from Eliza Clark, a pitch-black comedy both shocking and hilarious, fearlessly exploring the taboos of sexuality and gender roles in the twenty-first century. ‘Smart, stylish, and very funny.’ Lara Williams ‘Boundaries are for breaking and if anyone can crash through and reinterpret the fear of our time, Eliza Clark can.’ Mslexia
