The Undying

A Pulitzer Prize-winning memoir that dissects the ideological regime of cancer, offering a profound meditation on illness, mortality, and survival in modern America. "The Undying is a startling, urgent intervention in our discourses about sickness and health, art and science, language and literature, and mortality and death. In dissecting what she terms 'the ideological regime of cancer,' Anne Boyer has produced a profound and unforgettable document on the experience of life itself." —Sally Roon
