"Dinlenme ve Rahatlama Yılım" kitabı hakkında
Bu kitap için söyleyeceklerim herkese hitap etmeyebilir.
Kitapta sınıfsal farklılık ağır derecede belirgin olması baş karakterle(adı kitap boyunca söylenmiyor) empati yapmamı zorlastirdi açıkçası,belki de bu yüzden sevmedim bilemiyorum. Kitabı okurken acaba bu kadın orta sınıf olsaydı her şey bu kadar kolay olur muydu diye düşünmeden edemedim. Her gün sabahın köründe kalkıp işe yetişmek gibi bir koşuşturmasi olsaydı bu rahatlıkla depresyonun tadını çıkarabilir miydi? -depresyon tadı çıkarılacak bir şey değil tabi-bir sene boyunca ilaçlarla uyumak baya çılgınca geldi. Hanımefendi sürekli en yakın arkadaşının imaj kaygısı olmasının dalga geçilip aşağilanacak bir şeymiş gibi davranması,sürekli Revayi kendi içinde yermesi hiç hoşuma gitmedi. Güzellik, dış görünüş hiç önemli değilmiş gibi davranması ama ne zaman aynada kendini görse hala güzelim gibi ifadeler kullanması çok iticiydi günümuzde imaj kaygısı olmayan var mı cidden?? Neyse biz gelelim ailesi ile olan ilişkisine, ihmal edilmiş görmezden gelinmiş bir kız çocuğu var. Kitapta bunlardan bahsedilmeye başlaninca üzülmedim değil. Anne ve babasının trajik ölümü de tuzu biberi olmuş. Erkek arkadaşıyla olan ilişkisi de annesi ve babası ile olan ilişkisine çok benzettim.
Bu kitapta okuduğumuz kadın bana göre; yüzeysel ve sahte bir hayatın içinde bu yuzeysellik ve sahtelige uyum sağlamaya çalışan biridir.

It seems like I’m on a streak of very unsettling books, and I’m loving it.🧚🏻‍♀️✨💅🏻 I’ve heard a lot of mixed opinions about Lapvona but so far I’m enjoying the plot. Yes, it is devastating and, well… gross. BUT the characters are unique and very interesting. They make me feel uneasy because of how unpredictable they are, and I think that’s great in this story. I’ve been trying to annotate more on my books but so far, I’m only underlining a few phrases so if you have any tips for annotating, please share them with me 💙 . . . #halfwayreview #review #bookreview #bookrecommendations #bookworm #booksta #bookstagram #bookstagrammer #bookish #morningpost #potd #picoftheday #photography #photooftheday #lapvona #ottessamoshfegh #currentread #sadgirl #crazy #booklover #bibliophile #literature #bookcover #reading (at Bookstagram) https://www.instagram.com/p/CoJ3JAbLEtH/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

🐑Lapvona by Ottessa Moshfegh🐑
instagram
“Lapvona wasn’t disturbing or gross. It’s the medieval times that scared me blind.”
I bought this book because I liked the cute little sheep having a wee nap on the cover.
Jokes aside I never read anything from Ottessa Moshfegh before so I didn't have any expectations or fears about her new book.
Hence, I was ready to absorb everything from this novel like a well-behaved sponge.
Pop into my website for the full review and to find out did I like it or not.

“Her name was Magda. Nobody will ever know who killed her. It wasn’t me. Here is her dead body.” This is the note that 70-something-year-old widow Vesta Gul finds while walking in the woods. Having read @My Year of Rest and Relaxation” I was quite sure that I wasn’t going to be reading a mystery here in any traditional sense. This book left me so unsettled. Vesta is the most unreliable of narrators and spending the whole story in Vesta’s restless mind is disquieting to say the least, towards the end almost eerie. Ottessa Moshfegh is out of this world. “I'd never been jealous of any young woman's looks. For me, it was like seeing a cute little squirrel. This one has big eyes, that one has a charming stripe, et cetera. But some women really take offense at youth and beauty.” . . . . . #readstagram #bookstagramza #classicliterature #bookstagramsa #belletriststacked #booklover #bookstagramsouthafrica #books #sareaders #bookstagram #sabookstagrammers #sabookstagram #literaryfiction #bookish #Southafricanreaders #currentlyreading #booksbooksbooks #readerscommunity #ottessamoshfegh #deathinherhands #vintage #penguinrandomhouse (at Weltevredenpark, Gauteng, South Africa) https://www.instagram.com/p/CWn3X6OoK5W/?utm_medium=tumblr

From a rainy Sunday morning reading My Year of Rest and Relaxation and thinking of writing something about my year of quarantine and depression! 😅Really enjoying this unapologetically funny and at the same time, dark story by Ottessa Moshfegh these days! ⁣ ⁣ Have you read anything by her? . . . . #ottessamoshfegh #myyearofrestandrelaxation #darkacademia #darkacademiavibes #darkacademiaaesthetic #lightacademiaaesthetic #lightacademia #warmtones #quietshadesofbrown #booknookstagram #bookishflatlay #bookstagram #cornersofmyworld #booktography #feudebois #diptyque https://www.instagram.com/p/COF63d9rfcl/?igshid=6lktscjkkrap

By chance I happened across two of Ottessa Moshfegh's books & have been reading both. I definitely like My Year of Rest and Relaxation better. The stories in Homesick For Another World feel more like chapters in what should be longer stories than short stories. They feel incomplete and random. And now I know what people meant when they said her books have gross content. She didn't shy away from any bodily fluids. Even my pug is shocked by some of the content! Her stories cover sad & unlikeable characters & I'm not sure I'm really getting anything out of any of them. Her novel otoh has the same grotesque feel to it but with dashes of humor & insight that help lighten the darkness. Have you read either of these? What did you think of them? Is Eileen worth a try too? * #funaekreads #funaekbooks #instabooks #instareads #shortstories #pugsandbooks #shockedpug #sunsbuns #sealpuppug #ottessamoshfegh #currentlyreading https://www.instagram.com/p/Bpu56OrH1FE/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1nqs0rw10esd6

Attempting to rest & relax despite highlighting passages in a book then annotating your ex's name in them because it eeeily reminds you of them 😅 *** Said book is "My Year of Rest and Relaxation" by Ottessa Moshfegh #bookstagram #bibliophile #myyearofrestandrelaxation #ottessamoshfegh https://www.instagram.com/p/CYAM6GxvePU/?utm_medium=tumblr

Look who stopped by! Ottessa Moshfegh was kind enough to swing by and sign copies of her amazing new book, MY YEAR OF REST AND RELAXATION. It’s one of our favorites this year, so really psyched about this. Woo Hoo! 🙌🏽💕 #ottessamoshfegh (at Unabridged Bookstore)
