Description
Nathan Hill's "Wellness" plunges readers into the complex lives of Elizabeth and Jack, a couple navigating the pressures of family expectations and the search for certainty in an uncertain world. Their journey, from a romantic origin story to the challenges of raising their son Toby, is shaped by deeply etched familial backstories that illuminate their every move. As they contemplate a move to Chicago's North Shore and design their dream home, they grapple with a profound sense of loss and a yearning for meaning. Hill masterfully blends profound sadness with sharp, often hilarious, observations on modern life, from the allure of online misinformation to the solipsistic nature of nightlife, creating a novel that is both deeply resonant and remarkably funny.
