Wellness: A novel by Nathan Hill
The New York Times best-selling author of The Nix is back with a poignant & witty novel about marriage, the often baffling pursuit of health & happiness, & the stories that bind us together. From the gritty '90s Chicago art scene to a suburbia of detox diets & home-renovation hysteria, Wellness reimagines the love story with a healthy dose of insight, irony, & heart.
“A hilarious & moving exploration of a modern marriage that astounds in its breadth & intimacy.” —Brit Bennett, author of The Vanishing Half
When Jack & Elizabeth meet as college students in the '90s, the two quickly join forces & hold on tight, each eager to claim a place in Chicago’s thriving underground art scene with an appreciative kindred spirit. Fast-forward twenty years to married life, & alongside the challenges of parenting, they encounter cults disguised as mindfulness support groups, polyamorous would-be suitors, Facebook wars, & something called Love Potion Number Nine.
For the first time, Jack & Elizabeth struggle to recognize each other, and the no-longer-youthful dreamers are forced to face their demons, from unfulfilled career ambitions to painful childhood memories of their own dysfunctional families. In the process, Jack & Elizabeth must undertake separate, personal excavations, or risk losing the best thing in their lives: each other.
