'American storytelling at its era-spanning best . . . An immersive, multi-layered portrait of a marriage, Nathan Hills follow-up to The Nix is a work of quiet genius.' The Observer An Oprah's Book Club Pick. Moving from the gritty 90s Chicago art scene to a suburbia of detox diets and home renovation hysteria, Wellness is a story of marriage, middle age, our tech-obsessed health culture, and the bonds that keep people together. When Jack and Elizabeth meet as college students in the 90s, the two quickly join forces and hold on tight, each eager to claim a place in Chicagos thriving underground art scene with an appreciative kindred spirit. Fast-forward twenty years to married life, 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 and Elizabeth must undertake separate, personal excavations, or risk losing the best thing in their lives: each other. From the author of The Nix, Wellness mines the absurdities of modern technology and modern love to reveal profound, startling truths about intimacy and connection, reimagining the love story with healthy doses of insight, irony and heart. 'The incredible scope of this dazzlingly detailed state-of-the-nation satire almost defies description . . . Brilliant doesnt begin to describe it, but Ill say it anyway.' Daily Mail 'I doubt I'll enjoy many books this year as much as Wellness.' The Times
