My Year of Rest and Relaxation

by Ottessa Moshfegh

nihilistic bleak satirical disaffected uncomfortable existential crisis self-destruction privilege and ennui unreliable narrator dark humor

My Year of Rest and Relaxation drops you into the mind of a young, privileged woman in early 2000s New York, who decides the best way to cope with her profound ennui is to simply sleep through an entire year. With the help of a truly questionable psychiatrist and a cocktail of medications, she attempts to put her life on pause. The experience of reading this book is both darkly funny and deeply unsettling. Moshfegh's prose is sharp, almost clinical, as it dissects the narrator's disaffected observations and her determined self-destruction. It's a slow, immersive dive into a deeply nihilistic headspace, challenging you to find empathy or, perhaps, a strange recognition. This is for readers who appreciate biting satire, unreliable narrators, and character studies that aren't afraid to make you uncomfortable while also making you laugh.
