具体描述
Our narrator should be happy, shouldn't she? She's young, thin, pretty, a recent Columbia graduate, works an easy job at a hip art gallery, lives in an apartment on the Upper East Side of Manhattan paid for, like the rest of her needs, by her inheritance. But there is a dark and vacuous hole in her heart, and it isn't just the loss of her parents, or the way her Wall Street boyfriend treats her, or her sadomasochistic relationship with her best friend, Reva. It's the year 2000 in a city aglitter with wealth and possibility; what could be so terribly wrong?
My Year of Rest and Relaxation is a powerful answer to that question. Through the story of a year spent under the influence of a truly mad combination of drugs designed to heal our heroine from her alienation from this world, Moshfegh shows us how reasonable, even necessary, alienation can be. Both tender and blackly funny, merciless and compassionate, it is a showcase for the gifts of one of our major writers working at the height of her powers.

最后一页突然so sad
评分夏天离职时同事送的临别礼物，断断续续到今天终于读完。
评分2018第一丧书，但是即便丧到马里亚纳海沟，还有Reva和Dr.Tuttle这两个人物时不时出来调节气氛，黑色幽默与整部小说中弥漫着的荒诞感紧密结合，一步步推动着故事往前发展。女主人公要休眠一年的决心源于一种类似于存在主义的生存危机，时间正好设定在9·11发生前的一年，也很值得玩味。可惜收尾有些潦草，女主人公复苏后的"脱胎换骨"未免显得过于理所当然。不过私心来说，这书和我今年的状态太配了，从大概念到小细节都很戳中我……
评分男友在机场买了此书时如获至宝，然而我还是长这么大头一次理解“书评”存在的意义。在快睡着的时候，只有看了比书本身更精彩的书评，才能不停的拍脑袋“哦哦哦，我咋没看出来。。” zzzzzzzzz
评分It stings and made me laugh audibly.
