Winner of the inaugural Fence Modern Prize in ProseWinner of the Believer Book Award&ldquo;A scion of Nathaniel Hawthorne and Raymond Carver at once, Moshfegh transforms a poison into an intoxicant.&rdquo; &mdash;Rivka Galchen&ldquo;Reads like the swashbuckled spray of a slit throat&mdash;immediate, visceral, frank, unforgiving, violent, and grotesquely beautiful . . . McGlue has the urgency of short fiction married with the grandiosity of an epic at-sea classic.&rdquo; &mdash;Los Angeles Review of Books&ldquo;[Moshfegh] is a writer&rsquo;s writer, and one of the most multitalentednew voices to come along in years. . . . In McGlue, Moshfegh&rsquo;s facility with voice (here she&rsquo;s inhabiting that of a nineteenth-century scoundrel) competes with her ability to expose the gritty, mucky corners of the human condition. . . . Her prose is breathtaking, inventive, and electric.&rdquo; &mdash;Bustle"This book is not really a book; it&rsquo;s a prayer and a miracle. Ottessa Moshfegh is a conjurer of the highest order, and McGlue, a short novel about a person named McGlue who might be a murderer, makes me feel in love with the world, and so grateful to be alive." &mdash;Patty Yumi Contrell, author of Sorry to Disturb the Peace&ldquo;A splashy new edition. . . . Moshfegh's first book introduces the kind of character, in all his psychological wildness and vivid grotesquerie that her others are known for, and readers will be more than intrigued.&rdquo; &mdash;Booklist&ldquo;Moshfegh&rsquo;s fiction often fetishizes the repellent (vomit, blood, our capacity for callously using each other), but in time McGlue&rsquo;s tale acquires tenderness of a sort. That&rsquo;s partly thanks to Moshfegh&rsquo;s lyricism. . . . A potent, peculiar, and hallucinatory anti-romance.&rdquo; &mdash;Kirkus Reviews
