From Little Stack
Irina takes explicit photos of average-looking men. But she doesn’t do it for the art. At least, not entirely. She wants things from these men. Things that she will take whether they are given or not. And when she’s offered an exhibition at a fashionable London gallery, her obsession will reach terrifying new heights.
One of Granta's Best Young British Novelists 2023 An incendiary debut novel from a brash new talent—a pitch-black comedy, both shocking and hilarious, which fearlessly explores sexuality and gender roles in the twenty-first century.
Exiled from the art world and on sabbatical from her dead-end bar job, Irina obsessively takes explicit photographs of the average-looking men she persuades to model for her, scouted from the streets of Newcastle.
But her talent has not gone unnoticed, and Irina is invited to display her work at a fashionable London gallery. It is a chance to revive her career and escape from the rut of drugs, alcohol, and extreme cinema she's fallen into. Yet the news instead triggers a self-destructive tailspin, centered around Irina's consuming relationship with her best friend, and a shy young man from her local supermarket who has attracted her attention.
