Soon to be a major motion picture, starring Anne Hathaway Shortlisted for the Man Booker Prize So here we are. My name was Eileen Dunlop. Now you know me. I was twenty-four years old then, and had a job that paid fifty-seven dollars a week as a kind of secretary at a private juvenile correctional facility for teenage boys. I think of it now as what it really was for all intents and purposes—a prison for boys. I will call it Moorehead. Delvin Moorehead was a terrible landlord I had years later, and so to use his name for such a place feels appropriate. In a week, I would run away from home and never go back. This is the story of how I disappeared. The Christmas season offers little cheer for Eileen Dunlop, an unassuming yet disturbed young woman trapped between her role as her alcoholic father’s caretaker in a home whose squalor is the talk of the neighborhood and a day job as a secretary at the boys’ prison, filled with its own quotidian horrors. Consumed by resentment and self-loathing, Eileen tempers her dreary days with perverse fantasies and dreams of escaping to the big city. In the meantime, she fills her nights and weekends with shoplifting, stalking a buff prison guard named Randy, and cleaning up her increasingly deranged father’s messes. When the bright, beautiful, and cheery Rebecca Saint John arrives on the scene as the new counselor at Moorehead, Eileen is enchanted and proves unable to resist what appears at first to 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. Played out against the snowy landscape of coastal New England in the days leading up to Christmas, young Eileen’s story is told from the gimlet-eyed perspective of the now much older narrator. Creepy, mesmerizing, and sublimely funny, in the tradition of Shirley Jackson and early Vladimir Nabokov, this powerful debut novel enthralls and shocks, and introduces one of the most original new voices in contemporary literature. Ottessa Moshfegh is also the author of My Year of Rest and Relaxation, Homesick for Another World: Stories, and McGlue.

This is the never-before-told story of George Orwell's first wife, Eileen, a woman who shaped, supported, and even saved the life of one of the twentieth century's greatest writers. In 1934, Eileen O'Shaughnessy's futuristic poem, 'End of the Century, 1984', was published. The next year, she would meet George Orwell, then known as Eric Blair, at a party. 'Now that is the kind of girl I would like to marry!' he remarked that night. Years later, Orwell would name his greatest work, Nineteen Eighty-Four, in homage to the memory of Eileen, the woman who shaped his life and his art in ways that have never been acknowledged by history, until now. From the time they spent in a tiny village tending goats and chickens, through the Spanish Civil War, to the couple's narrow escape from the destruction of their London flat during a German bombing raid, and their adoption of a baby boy, Eileen is the first account of the Blairs' nine-year marriage. It is also a vivid picture of bohemianism, political engagement, and sexual freedom in the 1930s and '40s. Through impressive depth of research, illustrated throughout with photos and images from the time, this captivating and inspiring biography offers a completely new perspective on Orwell himself, and most importantly tells the life story of an exceptional woman who has been unjustly overlooked.

A New York Times Book Review Editors' Choice Named a Michigan Notable Book for 2023 Finalist for the 2022 Heartland Booksellers Award A gorgeous, unflinching love letter to Flint, Michigan, and the resilience of its people, Kelsey Ronan's Chevy in the Hole follows multiple generations of two families making their homes there, with a stunning contemporary love story at its center. In the opening pages of Chevy in the Hole, August “Gus” Molloy has just overdosed in a bathroom stall of the Detroit farm-to-table restaurant where he works. Shortly after, he packs it in and returns home to his family in Flint. This latest slip and recommitment to sobriety doesn’t feel too terribly different from the others, until Gus meets Monae, an urban farmer trying to coax a tenuous rebirth from the city’s damaged land. Through her eyes, he sees what might be possible in a city everyone else seems to have forgotten or, worse, given up on. But as they begin dreaming up an oasis together, even the most essential resources can’t be counted on. Woven throughout their story are the stories of their families—Gus’s white and Monae’s Black—members of which have had their own triumphs and devastating setbacks trying to survive and thrive in Flint. A novel about the things that change over time and the things that don’t, Chevy in the Hole reminds us again and again what people need from one another and from the city they call home.

"Eravamo nel 1964, stava per succedere di tutto." Le ragazze americane scoprono le minigonne, fumano per strada, conquistano nuove libertà. Ma Eileen Dunlop non è come le altre ragazze, non cerca di rendersi attraente, non ascolta i Beatles e non guarda Ed Sullivan alla tv, non le interessano le cose divertenti o popolari. Vive con il padre alcolizzato in una cittadina di periferia, in un quartiere con le strade fiancheggiate da alberi e gente piena di senso civico: un posto che sembra meraviglioso, a passarci in macchina. Lavora in un riformatorio per adolescenti maschi, fa seguire le regole come le ha insegnato la sua educazione conservatrice e cattolica. Timbra il cartellino in entrata e in uscita, timorosa di essere punita o esclusa: nessuno potrebbe dire di lei che è una pervertita, una ladra o una bugiarda. La vita di Eileen potrebbe scorrere così per sempre, noiosa e spenta come le sue gonne di lana al ginocchio e le calze spesse. Ma non accade. Perché Eileen in realtà è una furia, i pensieri sempre in movimento, la mente come quella di un assassino. È il 1964 e la libertà non è lontana. E se la libertà avesse un nome ambiguo e seducente come Rebecca Saint John? L'impeccabile direttrice del carcere, dagli occhi di uno strano azzurro piscina tropicale e i modi pazzi dei ricchi straordinariamente belli? Forse, senza Rebecca, Eileen avrebbe passato il tempo giurando a Dio che sarebbe cambiata, sarebbe diventata una vera signora, avrebbe tenuto un diario, sarebbe andata in chiesa, avrebbe pregato, indossato vestiti puliti, scelto amiche carine, avrebbe fatto coppia fissa con un bravo ragazzo, si sarebbe occupata del bucato. Forse, senza Rebecca, Eileen non si sarebbe fatta strada da sola, un'orfana che si allontana in macchina in una gelida mattina di Natale
