My Year of Rest and Relaxation by Ottessa Moshfegh

My Year of Rest and Relaxation by Ottessa Moshfegh
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Floored.

This is wonderful writing with such complete and real characters, relationships, palpable despair, sublimated feminist rage, an empty unmoored society, all of which are still very much recognizable today even though this book takes place in 2000. The only difference now is maybe that feminist rage is less sublimated now.
