General Analysis

 

ABOUT THE ORIGINAL BOOK

Diary of an Oxygen Thief by Anonymous delves into the disturbing mindset of a man who derives pleasure from emotionally hurting women. The narrative follows his manipulative relationships, particularly one lasting four and a half years, which he intentionally dismantles. Later, his own experiences of heartbreak lead him to reflect on his past behavior. The story chronicles his move from London to the United States for a job in advertising, where he encounters new relationships, most notably with a woman named Aisling. The book explores themes of emotional manipulation, guilt, alcoholism, and the complexities of relationships through the narrator's brutally honest and often cynical perspective.
