About this listen

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

She’s always hungry- Eliza Clark

I really don’t know how to feel about this one 🤔

Part of me loved a lot of the stories, they were crazy, funny, unhinged & each story was so different from the last. It literally reminded me of the series black mirror! It was just so random 🤣

The other part of me didn’t like it 😬 some of the stories were really pointless or they ended so abruptly that I was thinking I’d missed a page! Many felt like they’d been written whilst high AF, going off on a tangent & then forgetting what the whole point was so just ending it 🤷🏼‍♀️😅

I’m just unsure whether I liked it or not! It’s hard to rate it but I’d probs put it around a 3 🌟 purely for the good stories! Some of them I didn’t want to end they were so intriguing or gross 🫣 i probably should have paced myself and read a story a day instead of a lot of it back to back? I might of enjoyed it more then 🤷🏼‍♀️

I’m still going to check this authors others books out as I know she’s a good author & the stories I did like, I felt were well written 🤎

I loved all of the stories but a few will linger with me. She’s an extremely talented young writer tackling some current, ‘woke’ issues I’ve personally not experienced in literature before. I consider myself a fan after listening, already added 2 of her other titles to my wishlist. Loved Eliza reading a few of stories in her Geordie accent ❤️

Captivatingly descriptive

I had such a good time listening to this dark and macabre short story collection! All of the narrators did an amazing job and it was so refreshing to hear different regional accents! Each story was different but every single one was really engaging. The story told through Just Eat reviews was completely bonkers... definitely of my favourites! 😊 I have to say, I particularly enjoyed the sci-fi stories—I hope the author writes something in that genre one day. I was so intrigued by a lot of these worlds... I wanted to stay in them a little longer.

Unhinged in the best way!

There's so many darkly funny moments in this collection, highlights for me include The King and Goth GF, and She's Always Hungry. All so well performed, and imaginative, disturbing, and funny in turns.

I was trying to cook dinner whilst listening to Little Chitaly and it happened to be a stir fry. I nearly had to throw it away because I was loling so much at the descriptions of noodles.

Loved her work since Boy Parts. 💖

love Eliza Clarks work, this is excellent

I'm not usually into short stories but loved a previous novel by this author so gave it a go. I loved it. Each story gave me so much to think about. although I would prefer that each of the stories were full length novels, because I need to know more, I also now appreciated them in this format...
Please at least consider making The King a full length book though 😁
