Wow! What a textured life Maggie O’Farrell has lived. Her ability to transform these brushes with death into invaluable commentary on womanhood, disability, and motherhood is exquisitely adroit. It is a gripping read from start to finish and possibly the best memoir I have read.

As someone who struggles with similar neurological symptoms due to developmental disabilities, I cannot thank Maggie enough for being a voice for these often hidden struggles (particularly when navigating healthcare). This spoke to me on infinite levels, and I can't wait to read more of her work.
