Irina obsessively takes explicit photographs of the average-looking men she persuades to model for her, scouted from the streets of Newcastle. Placed on sabbatical from her dead-end bar job, she is offered an exhibition at a fashionable London gallery, promising to revive her career in the art world and offering an escape from her rut of drugs, alcohol and extreme cinema.

The news triggers a self-destructive tailspin, centred around Irina's relationship with 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 taboo regions of sexuality and gender roles in the 21st century.

An already superb piece of work that’s elevated again in the author’s telling. Refreshingly modern dive into just how it feels to be both not there and everywhere all at once.

An utterly absorbing story read with convincing narration. As I was drawn further into the story, I found myself loathing yet at the same time feeling sorry for the main character. This is an earthy story told from the perspective of a creative yet destructive personality who looks upon those around her with distain. At times quite brutal but totally engaging.

Darkly absorbing

A protagonist so unlikable I couldn't stop listening just to hear what else fell out of her mouth next! Narrator was dry and gritty and absolutely enchanting to listen to morning and night. My biggest disappointment is that the book had to end, but it wrapped up so beautifully I feel I have some sort of peace. Brilliant!

I couldn't put it down!

The kind of sharp, witty grittiness that I've been desperately searching for by a female author, with a female protagonist - unreliable and unlikeable. Refreshing, intelligent, complex - like Trainspotting, Filth, American Psycho had a beautiful baby. New favourite book of all time.

Incredible book with equally incredible narration
