Science writer Lorraine Boissoneault has been in pain for most of her adult life. Unable to control or make sense of her chronic illness diagnoses, she began describing the ebb and flow of her symptoms as “body weather.” At first an imaginative approach to coping with flare-ups, the phrase has become a waypoint in Lorraine’s explorations of the intimate relationship between our fragile bodies and the world around us.
Visceral and poetic, these braided essays traverse science, history, and memoir to explore the interconnected relationships between the human body and Earth’s meteorology—two chaotic systems that inform every cell of our beings. Boissoneault surveys her own “body weather,” relating her dysregulated thyroid to global temperature fluctuations; her arrhythmic heart to chaotic thunderstorms; her inflamed joints to wildfires beyond control.
Body Weather is a lyrical exploration that reimagines the cloudy stages of grief and challenges us to reexamine universal questions lodged deep within: how do we find comfort and meaning in a fevered world?
批評家のレビュー
“This forthright account of being ‘in a sick body on a sickening planet’ is recommended to readers of Elizabeth Kolbert and Terry Tempest Williams.”
—Shelf Awareness, Starred Review
“Recommend this haunting, heartbreaking, yet still hopeful title to readers who like to feel everything they read.”
—Library Journal
“A dazzling kaleidoscope of natural and personal history crackling with intelligence . . . Lorraine Boissoneault is a force of nature.”
—Sarah McColl, author of Joy Enough
“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
“Body Weather refuses the distance between personal collapse and planetary collapse, insisting, with unflinching honesty, that these crises are one and the same. She writes from inside a sick body on a sick planet and, in doing so, creates something far more urgent than forecast or diagnosis: a reckoning.”
—Esmé Weijun Wang, author of The Collected Schizophrenias
“Lorraine Boissoneault elegantly twines our unstable bodies and ravaged planet and demands an upwelling of care for us all. Body Weather is revelatory, enraging, and nothing less than a paean to survival.”
—Sabrina Imbler, author of How Far the Light Reaches
“A lyrical, unflinching look at what it means to live in a sick body, on a sick planet . . . By taking us on her journey, [Lorraine] teaches us not to live without grief—but alongside it.”
—Rachel E. Gross, author of Vagina Obscura: An Anatomical Voyage
