A Silent Spring for the human body, this wide-ranging, genre-crossing literary mystery interweaves the author’s quest to understand the source of her own condition with her telling of the story of the chronically ill 19th-century diarist Alice James—ultimately uncovering the many hidden health hazards of life in America.

This book was a brilliant example of compelling narrative entwined with wide-ranging, in-depth interdisciplinary research on how cultural and material environments impact women’s health. From unraveling how ME/CFS became stigmatized through sexism and disinformation, to investigating poisoned Victorian wallpaper, to inspiring activism, this book has it all. Must read for all women with chronic illness.

For Francisco Cantú, the border is in the blood: His mother, a park ranger and daughter of a Mexican immigrant, raised him in the scrublands of the Southwest. Driven to understand the hard realities of the landscape he loves, Cantú joins the Border Patrol. He and his partners learn to track other humans under blistering sun and through frigid nights. They haul in the dead and deliver to detention those they find alive. Plagued by a growing awareness of his complicity in a dehumanizing enterprise, he abandons the patrol for civilian life.

Francisco Cantu is one of the best contemporary writers. Anyone who has an opinion about the border, or immigration, needs to read this book. It is a beautifully written, morally eviscerating masterpiece.
