Oooh, Eileen Dunlop you were a creepy treat. This first-person narrated novel is full of Eileen's reflections on a turning point in her life. She's leading you through the last week of her life before that turning point, with only hints as to what is to come. Moshfegh handles the suspenseful revelation deftly and I am eager to read more of her work, though I believe this is her debut novel. Eileen herself is self-loathing, angry, abused, sad, and not very easy to relate to or empathize with. It probably won't happen, in fact. I have a feeling many people might not like this book because they will not like Eileen, but that is not a dealbreaker for me. I may not like her, but I damn well enjoyed her story.
