Eileen by Ottessa Moshfegh

dark tense slow-paced

3.5

"It's easy to tell the dirtiest minds - look for the cleanest finger nails." - Eileen by Ottessa Moshfegh 

The writing is great! However, the novel is random, repetitive and relies on vile behaviour and thoughts lovingly recounted.

Lastly, It is strange as a reader not to be interested in how 50 years separates two sides of one character who may as well be two different people.

3/5
