Sarbatoarea Craciunului în New England e un motiv de prea pu¿ina B E S T S E L L E R I N T E R N A T I O N A L bucurie pentru Eileen Dunlop, o tânara modesta ¿i introvertita, prinsa între slujba de secretara la Moorehead, o închisoare pentru baie¿i, cu ororile sale cotidiene, ¿i rolul de îngrijitoare a tatalui ei alcoolic, într-o casa mizera. Chinuita de resentimente ¿i de dezgust fäa de sine, Eileen î¿i petrece zilele mohorâte fantazând sa scape din micul oräel de provincie în care se simte captiva. Nop¿ile ¿i weekendurile le dedica unor furturi marunte din magazine, urmaririi unui gardian pe nume Randy, pentru care a facut o mica pasiune perversa, ¿i curäeniei dupa tatal ei. Când Rebecca Saint John vine în calitate de consilier psihologic la Moorehead, Eileen este fermecata ¿i se dovede¿te incapabila sa reziste la ceea ce, la început, pare a fi o prietenie miraculoasa. Afec¿iunea ei fäa de Rebecca o face însa complice la o infrac¿iune care îi depäe¿te chiar ¿i cele mai violente fantezii. Teribila, fascinanta ¿i amuzanta, aceasta memorabila carte de debut captiveaza ¿i ¿ocheaza, aducând în prim-plan una dintre cele mai originale voci noi în literatura contemporana. 'Eileen este un roman remarcabil, întunecat ¿i surprinzator, pe alocuri dezagreabil ¿i uneori hilar. Naratoarea car¿ii e una dintre cele mai ciudate, mai debusolate ¿i mai jalnice inadaptate pe care le-am întâlnit în fic¿iune - ¿i totu¿i, în felul ei inimitabil, adorabila. Crede¿i-ma, n-äi citit niciodata nimic care sa se compare cu Eileen.'
