My Year of Rest and Relaxation: A Novel by Ottessa Moshfegh

In an effort to escape the crushing numbness of modern existence, a privileged young woman embarks on an ambitious, year-long quest to hibernate through life with the help of a chaotic cocktail of prescription drugs. As the lines between dreams and reality blur, she must confront whether deep slumber can truly mend a fractured psyche or if it merely delays the inevitable. This darkly comedic exploration of isolation and self-obliteration challenges readers to question the price of total emotional detachment.
