Creepy, mesmerizing, and sublimely funny, in the tradition of Shirley Jackson and early Vladimir Nabokov, this powerful debut novel enthralls and shocks, and introduces one of the most original new voices in contemporary literature.

Ottessa Moshfegh Literary Novels Editorial Review
Eileen is a psychological thriller about a 24-year-old woman who lives with her alcoholic father and works in a juvenile correctional facility. The protagonist, Eileen, is emotional but stunted and has a strange obsession with bodily functions, perversion, and lies. Her life changes when Rebecca is hired as a counselor at the correctional facility. Rebecca is beautiful, proficient, and Harvard educated, unlike Eileen. Eileen is fascinating, dirty, and pitiable. The novel throws plot twists which turn it almost into a thriller. Eileen is a fully developed, unlikable but endearing character. The book delves entirely into its narrator while unfolding into two impulsive characters, each with their own mental difficulties, making it a brilliantly thoughtful novel. However, some parts of Rebecca's character are unclear, making her difficult to relate to at times.
