If you like the dark and grotesque, this book is for you. I picked this up at an airport while waiting for a flight, wanting to expand my reading choices. Turns out it is not the sort of story I like, or the sort of character I like to read about. I found the opening confusing and the narrative difficult, but on the whole, Moshfegh is a skilled writer and the book, for what it is, is well done.
