In Search of the Missing Eyelash [EPUB ebook] 

‘Both comic and moving as it explores ideas of self, of gender, identification and loneliness’. Observer. First published in 2008 by Vintage this Betty Trask Award winning novel; a humorous LGBTQI+ coming of age story, is available for the first time in 17 years. Lizzie is lonely. Her parents have gone and her brother, who believes he is a woman, is missing. Most of all, though, Lizzie misses Sally, her former lover, who has gone off with a man with a fat neck. She starts to stalk Sally, collecting bathroom fluff, dust and pubes from Sally’s bed – all the things that prove that somewhere life is taking place without her.
