JUST FINISHED THIS AND IT IS NOT WORTH READING. Neurotic old woman
kills her dog in an attempt to evade her own morality.
genuinely beyond annoying character and flat plot line. Felt like I was spiralling while reading it, how awful. That being said it is so typical Moshfegh and I do really enjoy her writing, poetic style and general depravity. I’ve come to expect this feeling when reading her books, and in a way I crave this.
