Buch Details
Razor-sharp short stories. ? Zadie Smith
Moshfegh is consistently as sparky and gripping as she is inventive? She could become one of the most outstanding US writers of her generation. -- Peter Carty ? i
The characters in this collection are an unlovely bunch but make for an irresistible read? She writes terrific, attention-grabbing openings, and impactful last lines that don?t strain for a lapidary effect. Her damaged-girl deadpan snark is second to none, but she inhabits other character types with ease. -- Christopher Taylor ? Financial Times
She can really write and has a pitch-black sense of humour. -- Phil Baker ? Sunday Times
Moshfegh?s writing is cinematic ? vivid, immediate. -- Gwendoline Riley ? Times Literary Supplement
Ottessa Moshfegh has written four previous books: McGlue (2014); Eileen, which was awarded the 2016 PEN/Hemingway Award and shortlisted for the Man Booker Prize; Homesick for Another World (2017); and My Year of Rest and Relaxation (2018), which was shortlisted for the Wellcome Book Prize.
