My Nemesis is an exhilarating act of defiance, a novel that lights a match and sends the whole question of female characters' likability up in flames...A fiercely philosophical novel that is also irresistibly, addictively readable. -- Sarah Shun-Lien Bynum, author of Likes [A] sly, seething novel...It lays bare the horror of what husbands and wives expect of each other. My Nemesis is a pearl cultivated in justified rage. I loved it. -- Sarah Manguso, author of Very Cold People I was bowled over by this brilliant narrative of desire, complicity, and the limits of empathy. My Nemesis is a compact masterpiece in the confessional mode, one that reverberates long after the last page is turned. -- Antoine Wilson, author of Mouth to Mouth
