Lapvona Reviews

Compelling... Moshfegh's bold venture beyond her comfort zone in Lapvona is a welcome promise of how much more she has to offer American literature today. * Financial Times *
What impresses here is not so much Moshfegh's abilities with character or narrative, or even her language . . . as the qualities Lapvona shares with a Francis Bacon painting: depicting in blood-red vitality, without morals or judgment, the human animal in its native chaos. * Guardian *
Moshfegh expertly creates a world with its own superstitions and laws, both timeless and topical. * Oprah Daily *
Moshfegh's genius is her ability to rip away the veil, revealing the horrors beneath, in writing so compelling, and bleakly funny, that we can't bear to look away. * i *
A witty, vicious novel.. . Moshfegh is one of our most thrilling chroniclers of the abject * Observer (USA) *
