Alien Books

★ 《紐約時報》暢銷作家Jennette McCurdy，萬眾矚目首部長篇小說！★ 席捲 2026 歐美文壇，最具爭議、最赤裸的「少女慾望」剖析。主角Waldo是一名17歲的少女。她飢渴、衝動、孤獨、充滿憤怒，卻也無比敏銳。她最渴望的目標，是她的寫作老師—柯基先生 (Mr. Korgy)。柯基先生是一個有妻小、有貸款、夢想早已萎縮、挺著小腹的中年男人。沃多不知道自己為何想要他。是因為他的熱情？人生經驗？還是因為他懂那些她不懂的書與電影？或者更單純：在所有人都無視她的世界裡，柯基先生是唯一「看見」她的人。如果你也曾在愛中迷失，如果你也曾為了被看見而付出昂貴代價，這本書寫給每一個受過傷、卻依然渴望著什麼的靈魂。From the #1 New York Times bestselling author of I'm Glad My Mom Died comes a sad, funny, thrilling novel about sex, consumerism, class, desire, loneliness, the internet, rage, intimacy, power, and the (oftentimes misguided) lengths we'll go to in order to get what we want.Waldo is ravenous.

And the thing she wants most of all: Mr. Korgy, her creative writing teacher with the wife and the kid and the mortgage and the growing paunch. She doesn't know why she wants him. Is it his passion? His life experience? The fact that he knows books and films and things that she doesn't? Or is it
