A Living Remedy by Nicole Chung
Ecco/HarperCollins, 2024.
“Nicole Chung weaves a groundbreaking narrative steeped in love, humor, the infinitude of memory, and the essentiality of community.... A Living Remedy is elegiac and heart-expanding, a memoir that’s both an exploration of loss and a beacon for moving forward.” —Bryan Washington, author of Palaver
“This astounding and immensely moving memoir is a gift. It is a chance to think about family, mortality, love, and grief. It is a chance to confront the broken healthcare system we live within. From the most intimate to the most public, A Living Remedy holds gem-like questions about all that matters.” —Megha Majumdar, author of A Guardian and a Thief
“A transcendent memoir about family, class, and the contours of loss … In her clear, concise prose, Chung makes the personal political, tackling everything from America’s crushingly unjust health care system to the country’s gauzy assumptions about adoption … Absorbing, spare and sometimes terrifyingly close to the abyss, A Living Remedy shows us the power of resilience.” —The New York Times Book Review
