***LONGLISTED FOR THE NATIONAL BOOK AWARD IN FICTION***
Named one of Time Magazineâs 100 Best Mystery and Thriller Books of All Time
âAn extraordinary and dazzlingly original work from one of our most gifted and interesting writersâ (Emily St. John Mandel, author of The Glass Hotel). The Need, which finds a mother of two young children grappling with the dualities of motherhood after confronting a masked intruder in her home, is âlike nothing youâve ever read beforeâĻin a good wayâ (People).
When Molly, home alone with her two young children, hears footsteps in the living room, she tries to convince herself itâs the sleep deprivation. Sheâs been hearing things these days. Startling at loud noises. Imagining the worst-case scenario. Itâs what mothers do, she knows.
But then the footsteps come again, and she catches a glimpse of movement.
Suddenly Molly finds herself face-to-face with an intruder who knows far too much about her and her family. As she attempts to protect those she loves most, Molly must also acknowledge her own frailty. Molly slips down an existential rabbit hole where she must confront the dualities of motherhood: the ecstasy and the dread; the languor and the ferocity; the banality and the transcendence as the book hurtles toward a mind-bending conclusion.
âBrilliantâ (Entertainment Weekly), âgrotesque and lovelyâ (The New York Times Book Review, Editorâs Choice), and âwildly captivatingâ (Oprah Daily), The Need is a glorious celebration of the bizarre and beautiful nature of our everyday lives and âshowcases an extraordinary writer at her electrifying bestâ (Publishers Weekly, starred review).
