About this listen
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.

Not fully fleshed out
Boy Parts starts out with a strong premise, but midway becomes a strange psychological thriller that straddles the boundary between reality and imagination. The ideas presented - or what I think the author must have aimed for - certainly are interesting (such as the superficiality of Gen Z & younger; performative existence; reel v/s real life; gaslighting for power dynamics; women’s gaze as not always purer than the male gaze etc…). But I think the book lacked in execution and seemed sloppy in parts.
The author also narrated the book and her accent makes it difficult to understand certain sections because she swallows a lot of her words. So this book isn’t as enjoyable in audio. A meh book for me.
