A hilarious and moving exploration of a modern marriage that astounds in its breadth and intimacy. -- Brit Bennett, author of <i>The Mothers</i> and <i>The Vanishing Half</i> Nathan Hill has synthesized about a hundred years of that distinctly American delusion called self-improvement, and Wellness is the whip smart and gently comic result.' -- Joshua Ferris, author of <i>Then We Came to the End</i> Wellness is one of the funniest, saddest, smartest novels I’ve ever read . . . It's a flat-out masterpiece. -- Anthony Marra, author of <i>A Constellation of Vital Phenomena</i> Hill blends a family chronicle with cultural critique in his expansive and surprisingly tender latest . . . This stunning novel of ideas never loses sight of its humanity. * Publishers Weekly * A beautiful, sometimes sad, sometimes satirical but most of all honest book about the many people a person becomes—the way a life, in time, inevitably upends itself. -- Omar El Akkad, <i>author of American War</i> Ambitious, deeply engrossing, whip-smart and ultimately heartbreaking, Nathan Hill’s Wellness is all this and much more. -- Richard Russo, author of the North Bath Trilogy
