Listen Later

LP bookclub returns! Interim host Derek chats to BFL about My Year of Rest and Relaxation by Ottessa Moshfegh, the biggest title in the very popular unhinged women literary fiction genre. One host loved this book, the other not so much. Does it have anything to do with how self-destructive they are? Things get a little personal.
