Japanese literary sensation Fuminori Nakamura’s latest novel is a dark look into the human psyche-what turns someone into a killer? Can it be something as small as a suggestion? Turn this page, and you may forfeit your entire life. A confessional diary implicates its reader in a heinous crime, and reveals with disturbing honesty the psychological motives of a killer. With My Annihilation, Fuminori Nakamura, master of literary noir, has constructed a puzzle box of a narrative that delves relentlessly into the darkest corners of human consciousness, interrogating the unspeakable thoughts all humans share and only monsters act on.
