One of the best books ever written, and a favorite.

I loved this book. It was a psychological spiral staircase into characters that are odd and unique and twisted but human in their own ways. I think it’s what books like my year of rest and relaxation WANT to be, but aren’t. I felt very attached to Erika.

Jelinek’s novel is art, though of the most uncomfortable kind — with no redemptive character development to soften the perpetual horrors taking place.

bdsm & motherly love gone very, very, very wrong. this book seriously disturbed me, and i would have stopped, if her prose wasn't so compelling.

Holy moly. This is one of the craziest, most fascinating books I’ve read in a while. It speaks for itself but man...so strange and gross and interesting. Worth the read depending on your genre interest, but content warning includes self-harm, rape, assault/abuse. You will not feel good after reading this.
