NEW YORK TIMES BOOK REVIEW "
BEST HORROR FICTION OF 2024"
From Eliza Clark, the author of the brilliant novels
Boy Parts
and
Penance
and one of
Granta
’s Best Young British Novelists, comes a fierce, visionary and darkly comic story collection.
A woman welcomes a parasite into her body.
A teenager longs for perfect skin.
A scientist tends to fragile alien flora.
A young man takes the night into his own hands.
Unsettling, revelatory, and laced with her signature dark humor, Eliza Clark’s debut short story collection plumbs the depths of that most basic human feeling: hunger.
