"The guest" by Emma Cline
Friends of the CCCB
Exclusive for Friends of the CCCB
Emma Cline (Sonoma, California, 1989), who with her worldwide success The Girls was considered one of the most powerful voices of her generation, confirms in this new novel with the air of a psychological thriller her forceful literary power.
At the very center of this fascinating novel, written in hypnotic and voluptuous prose, there is a woman driven by desperation and a muted sense of morality. The stage is a world of luxury and appearances, of dominance and dependence, of uncertainties and security.
In the wake of classics such as Highsmith or Cheever, The Guest is an exploration, with a cartographer's eye, of the dynamics of power and self-deception to which we indulge in order to survive.
