Collected's 24in24 - Caly recommends...She's Always Hungry - Eliza Clark

Caly recommends... Eliza Clark's weird and wonderful collection of short stories. Adopting her usual transgressive writing style, they are full to the brim with horror, humour, and INSATIABLE HUNGER. I loved seeing her lean further into sci-fi territory as she uniquely narrates varying versions of modern-day desire and disaster. These stories were funny, surreal and gross - a stroke of genius.

From the author of Penance and Boy Parts

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.
