A silent epidemic of chronic illnesses afflicts tens of millions of Americans: These are diseases that are poorly understood, frequently marginalized, and can go undiagnosed and unrecognized altogether. Renowned writer Meghan O’Rourke delivers a revelatory investigation into this elusive category of “invisible” illness that encompasses autoimmune diseases, post-treatment Lyme disease syndrome, and now long COVID, synthesizing the personal and the universal to help all of us through this new frontier.

A deeply wrought and brilliantly written synthesis that illuminates our personal and collective challenges in addressing the illnesses of our time. This book is a gift to those who struggle to find solutions and to their loved ones who struggle to understand. I have already shared it among my circle.

Jackson Brodie has relocated to a quiet seaside village, in the occasional company of his recalcitrant teenage son and an aging Labrador, both at the discretion of his ex-partner Julia. It's picturesque, but there's something darker lurking behind the scenes. Jackson's current job, gathering proof of an unfaithful husband for his suspicious wife, is fairly standard-issue, but a chance encounter with a desperate man on a crumbling cliff leads him into a sinister network—and back across the path of his old friend Reggie.

Head and shoulders above the usual fare. Worth the patience of a complex beginning. Fresh observations, timely topics, and great wit make this an engaging and satisfying read. True to life characters put the cherry on top of this great book.
