Descriere magazin:
NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER - A searing, deeply moving memoir of illness and recovery that traces one young woman\'s journey from diagnosis to remission to re-entry into normal life--from the author of the Life, Interrupted column in The New York Times ONE OF THE BEST BOOKS OF THE YEAR: The New York Times Book Review, The Washington Post, The Rumpus, Library Journal - I was immersed for the whole ride and would follow Jaouad anywhere. . . . Her writing restores the moon, lights the way as we learn to endure the unknown.--Chanel Miller, The New York Times Book Review Beautifully crafted . . . affecting . . . a transformative read . . . Jaouad\'s insights about the self, connectedness, uncertainty and time speak to all of us.--The Washington Post In the summer after graduating from college, Suleika Jaouad was preparing, as they say in commencement speeches, to enter the real world.

When Jaouad finally walked out of the cancer ward--after countless rounds of chemo, a clinical trial, and a bone marrow transplant--she was, according to the doctors, cured. But as she would soon learn, a cure is not where the work of healing ends; it\'s where it begins. She had spent the past 1,500 days in desperate pursuit of one goal--to survive. And now that she\'d done so, she realized that she had no idea how to live. How would she reenter the world and live again? How could she reclaim what had been lost? Jaouad embarked--with her new best friend, Oscar, a scruffy terrier mutt--on a 100-day, 15,000-mile road trip across the country. She set out to meet some of the strangers who had written to her during her years in the hospital: a tee
