Book of the Month Live

Nathan Hill on placebos, self-care fads, and wellness.


Listen Later

We are excited to be sitting down with Nathan Hill on this week's episode of Virtual Book Tour to discuss his new novel, Wellness. We talk about algorithms, placebos, self-care fads, and Nathan's personal definition of wellness.

When Jack and Elizabeth meet as college students, the two instantly fall in love. Fast-forward twenty years to married life, and alongside the challenges of parenthood, they encounter cults disguised as mindfulness support groups, polyamorous couples, and Facebook wars. For the first time, Jack and Elizabeth struggle to recognize each other and they risk losing the best thing in their lives: each other.
