The book is just the latest entry in Moshfegh's current rise to literary fame. It takes place in a fictional medieval European village, where violence is rampant and resources are scarce (unless you are, of course, among the ruling class).
This is the nugget of the idea that would become her latest novel, Lapvona. "And I would have nightmares about the guilt of having killed someone." "But for a really long time I felt like I had killed someone," the author said in an interview.
Ottessa Moshfegh has never killed anyone. Ottessa Moshfegh's new book, Lapvona, is her most gruesome and graphic work to date.Īndrew Casey/Courtesy of Penguin Random House
