'Razor-sharp' Zadie Smith An electrifying, prizewinning short story
collection from the Booker-shortlisted author of Eileen and My Year
of Rest and Relaxation. There's something eerily unsettling about
Ottessa Moshfegh's stories, something almost dangerous while also
being delightful - and often even weirdly hilarious. Her characters
are all unsteady on their feet; all yearning for connection and
betterment, in very different ways, but each of them seems destined
to be tripped up by their own baser impulses. The flesh is weak;
the timber is crooked; people are cruel to each other, and stupid,
and hurtful, but beauty comes from strange sources, and the dark
energy surging through these stories is oddly and powerfully
invigorating. One of the most gifted and exciting young writers in
America, she shows us uncomfortable things, and makes us look at
them forensically - until we find, suddenly, that we are really
looking at ourselves. 'Moshfegh's writing is cinematic - vivid,
immediate' TLS
