My Year of Rest and Relaxation by Ottessa Moshfegh
In Ottessa Moshfegh's buzzed-about new novel, My Year of Rest and Relaxation, a tall, blonde, thin, and moneyed Upper East Side twentysomething embraces this summer's complicated nap trend to the point of dark hyperbole. She quits the cushy gallery girl job she didn't need for any financial reason in the first place, and self medicates into oblivion in an attempt to sleep for a year and return to life renewed. Purified. A sleep cleanse, if you will. Not only is the book strangely addictive (much like the narrator's pills), it's also strangely aspirational. Who wouldn't want an endless series of naps at their disposal?
