“Body Weather is an astonishment—a dazzling kaleidoscope of natural and personal history crackling with intelligence. Lorraine Boissoneault’s expansive vision presents both the awesome wonders and delicate frailties of nature, from the cosmos to the tender, tenacious heart. Oceanic in scope and breathtaking as a lightning storm, Body Weather vibrates with the pain and rage of living in a female body on a sick planet. Lorraine Boissoneault is a force of nature.” —Sarah McColl, author of Joy Enough “I’m amazed at how seamlessly Lorraine Boissoneault dances between the physiological and geological, between the personal and universal, between grief and hope. From grand sweeps of scientific history to poignant slices of memoir, Body Weather connects the challenges of the planet to the trials of the body and dares to imagine a future where we address both with humanity. It’s a singular, stunning book.” —Ed Yong, Pulitzer Prize–winning journalist and author of An Immense World
