Description
McGlue, the first novella from Booker-shortlisted author Ottessa Moshfegh, is a dark and unforgettable tale of a man's desperate search for a drink. After a night of drinking, he finds himself in a precarious situation, with no memory of who he is or what has happened. As he struggles to piece together his past, he becomes fixated on one thing: a drink. But for McGlue, the pursuit of sobriety is a cruel mistress, accompanied by terrifying memories that refuse to fade.
This gripping and unflinching novella is a masterful exploration of the human psyche, set against the atmospheric backdrop of 19th-century America. With its sharp prose and razor-sharp wit, McGlue is a journey into the heart of darkness, where the lines between reality and delusion are blurred. a worthwhile read for fans of literary fiction and those who enjoy a good challenge.
