My Annihilation

Praise for Fuminori Nakamura "A thriller in the same elevated sense as is Dostoevsky’s Crime and Punishment or Camus’s The Stranger . . . ​Nature versus nurture, free will versus fate: Such are the themes that flicker almost subliminally through this shocking narrative, which also emits echoes of Poe and Mishima." —The Wall Street Journal "A suspenseful study of obsession. . . Love, even illicit love, has a way of bringing out the best—or the worst—in a person." —The New York Times Book Review "Nakamura's impassioned writing is part of a continuum that stretches from Dostoevsky to Camus to Ōe." —Los Angeles Times
