Headfirst Editor's Pick
"Sell out warning! Surreal and transgressive body horror from a major new force in the UK literary scene. Eliza Clark follows her taboo-baiting Boy Parts and the downright disturbing Penance with this darkly comic and devastating collection of shorts. She’ll be making a personal appearance at Sparks, offering you a peephole into her twisted creative mind."

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.
Eliza will be in conversation with Nadia Attia (Verge). Tickets cost £6 and will no longer include a drink due to shifting venue. Presented by bookhaus.
Entry requirements: no age restrictions
