ashleyholstrom 's review for:
My Year of Rest and Relaxation
by Ottessa Moshfegh
Mmm.
Our narrator is young and beautiful, but deeply depressed and empty. Her parents are dead, her boyfriend is terrible, and her best friend is annoying. But it’s the year 2000 and exciting things should be happening for a young woman in Manhattan. Right? To avoid the world, she finds the worst psychiatrist she can and makes up stories to get medications to put her to sleep. And so, we get Ottessa Moshfegh’s My Year of Rest and Relaxation. It was the perfect companion for the first month of COVID-19 quarantine.
