What It’s Like in Words by Eliza Moss is a compelling debut novel that delves into the complexities of toxic relationships and the journey toward self-discovery. The story follows Enola, an aspiring writer nearing her thirties, who becomes entangled with a charismatic yet emotionally abusive fellow novelist. As their relationship unfolds over two tumultuous years, Enola grapples with self-doubt, isolation, and the erosion of her identity, all while striving to complete her first novel. Moss employs a nonlinear narrative and stream-of-consciousness style to mirror Enola’s fragmented psyche, effectively immersing readers in her internal struggles.

Throughout the novel, Enola’s interactions with her best friend Ruth and a subsequent relationship with a kinder man named Virinder highlight the challenges of recognizing and escaping unhealthy dynamics. The narrative’s shifting timelines and unreliable narration underscore the difficulty of discerning reality from perception in abusive situations. Ultimately, What It’s Like in Words is a poignant exploration of reclaiming one’s voice and the redemptive power of art and friendship in the face of emotional turmoil.
