This is the story of how I disappeared.\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe Christmas season offers little cheer for Eileen Dunlop, an unassuming yet disturbed young woman trapped between her role as her alcoholic father's caretaker and a secretary at the Moorehead boys' prison. Consumed by resentment and self-loathing, Eileen tempers her dreary days with perverse fantasies and dreams of escaping to the big city, and fills her nights and weekends with shoplifting and stalking a prison guard named Randy. When the bright and beautiful Rebecca Saint John arrives as the new counselor at Moorehead, Eileen is enchanted and unable to resist what appears be a miraculously budding friendship. In a Hitchcockian twist, her affection for Rebecca ultimately pulls her into complicity in a crime that surpasses her wildest imaginings. Creepy, mesmerizing, and sublimely funny, in the tradition of Shirley Jackson and early Vladimir Nabokov, this powerful debut novel enthralls and shocks, introducing one of the most original new voices in contemporary literature.\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Penguin Random House","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49687268851940,"sku":null,"price":18.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0723\/5505\/3796\/files\/eileen.jpg?v=1787261662","url":"https:\/\/maplemercantilebooks.com\/products\/eileen-by-ottessa-moshfegh","provider":"Maple Mercantile Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
