Enqualia Books
A novel by Marharita Nakaliuzhna
Crazy Daisy
She burned the letters. The smoke still smelled like him.
A novel about reinvention, and what it costs.
English · Українська · Русский
The last letter burned, a scarlet flame consuming all the pain it had held inside. I wanted to destroy everything that caused me suffering, hoping it would help me start a new life.
“I'm just messing with her. It's funny to watch her believe every word.”
The story of a girl who rebuilt herself
Daisy Field leaves Kyiv for Lviv with a plan: become untouchable. Betrayed by friends who wanted her house and her money, humiliated by a boy who found her devotion funny, and unseen by parents who sent an apartment instead of themselves, she decides the girl she used to be has to burn.
What she builds in her place is flawless. Top of her class. Admired by everyone, close to no one. A performance so complete that even she starts to believe it.
Then she meets Adam, who looks unnervingly like the boy who broke her, and the architecture of her control begins to give.
Crazy Daisy is a sharp, interior novel about the seductiveness of self-invention — and the quiet cost of never letting anyone close enough to hurt you.

Daisy Field destroys the remnants of her past, watching her old life turn to ash in a desperate attempt to excise the humiliation inflicted by her ex-boyfriend Nolan. Betrayed by fake friends and neglected by wealthy, career-obsessed parents, she views her move to Lviv as a necessary metamorphosis. Armed with a cold, meticulously crafted plan, she abandons her identity as the naive, weird girl to become an untouchable icon of academic success and social perfection. She intends to weaponize her charm and beauty, ensuring she is admired by everyone and hurt by no one. But as she navigates her new life at the university, the lines between her curated facade and her fragile emotional reality begin to blur. She finds herself drawn to Adam, a man who bears a haunting physical resemblance to the boy who once broke her, pulling her back into the very patterns she swore to leave behind. As her obsession with control grows, Daisy must confront the hollowness of her ambition. Can she successfully reinvent herself without losing the last parts of her soul to the fire of her own resentment?
