This is a dark, tragic, emotional ride, and nothing really happens for 3/4s of the book but it’s wonderful, and it's beautiful and I devoured it.

The descriptions of the mundane and small feels revolutionary and so vivid. It reads like poetry. Its smart, it's go subtext, it loops on itself, it's funny, it's sad - chefs kiss 💋

For fans of My Year of Rest and anything Ottesa Moshfegh, The New Me and Boy Parts.
