We are thrilled to welcome Josh Silver back to Liverpool to hear all about his new novel Fruit Fly.
Anyone can write a bestseller. Here’s how.
GO GAY
It’s been seven years since Mallory shot to fame as a literary sensation. But after years of struggling with writer’s block, she’s desperate to resurrect her career before it spirals into obscurity. She needs inspiration to strike – and fast.
GO SAD
Enter Leo – a young struggling addict sleeping under bridges and trading sex for survival. He’s vulnerable. He’s enigmatic. He’s exactly what Mallory has been looking for.
GO DARK
Mallory needs Leo if she wants another bestseller. Authenticity sells, and there’s nothing more authentic than real life. She’s the perfect person to tell Leo’s story. Gay, sad, dark – just what the world needs right now. But as secrets threaten to unravel more than just her career, Mallory must decide: just how far will she go to pen the perfect story?
As these two lives collide, Fruit Fly moves from middle-class secrets and pretentious literary parties to the raw underworld of chemsex, abuse, and addiction. Exploring privilege, queer identity, and our modern obsession with authenticity, this darkly funny and deeply humane novel announces Josh Silver as an extraordinary new voice in fiction.
