Lapvona
by Ottessa Moshfegh
The recording of this book is Moshfegh in her own voice. I was again bowled over by her talent for writing and now reading her own work. This old world setting takes us to a village of a medieval realm. The characters are richly drawn and Moshfegh pulls no punches as she explores the deep essence of humanity through lenses of brutality, neglect, class, religion and midwifery. This ain't for the faint of heart. No ifs, ands, or buts. Just buckle up. There is a lot to appreciate here.
