Recenzii
"Kirkus Reviews"(starred review)
A woman recalls her mysterious escape from home in this taut, controlled noir about broken families and their proximity to violence . The narrative masterfully taunts . The release, when it comes, registers a genuine shock. And Moshfegh has such a fine command of language and her character that you can miss just how inside out Eileen's life becomes in the course of the novel, the way the "loud, rabid inner circuitry of my mind" overtakes her. Is she inhumane or self-empowered? Deeply unreliable or justifiably jaded? Moshfegh keeps all options on the table . A shadowy and superbly told story of how inner turmoil morphs into outer chaos. "
