A book for the moment and for the ages. Its questing, pissed, propulsive, funny, generous, pervy, and originalfull of love and pain in all their entwined glory. Maggie Nelson, author of The Argonauts
The long-awaited essay collection from one of the most influential voices in disability activism that detonates a bomb in our collective understanding of care and illness, showing us that sickness is a fact of life.
In the wake of the 2014 Ferguson riots, and sick with a chronic condition that rendered them housebound, Johanna Hedva turned to the page to ask: How do you throw a brick through the window of a bank if you cant get out of bed? It was not long before this essay, Sick Woman Theory, became a seminal work on disability, because in reframing illness as not just a biological experience but a social one, Hedva argues that under capitalisma system that limits our worth to the productivity of our bodieswe must reach for the revolutionary act of caring for ourselves and others.
How to Tell When We Will Die expands upon Hedvas paradigm-shifting perspective in a series of slyly subversive and razor-sharp essays that range from the theoretical to the personalfrom Deborah Levy and Susan Sontag to wrestling, kink, mysticism, death, and the color yellowDrawing from their experiences with Americas byzantine healthcare system, and considering archetypes they call The Psychotic Woman, The Freak, and The Hag in Charge, Hedva offers a bracing indictment of the politics that exploit sicknessrelying on and fueling ableismto the detriment of us all.
With the insight of Anne Boyers The Undying and Leslie Jamisons The Empathy Exams, and the wit of Samantha Irby, Hedvas debut collection upends our collective understanding of disabilityIn their radical reimagining of a world where care and pain are symbiotic, and our bodies are allowed to live free and well, Hedva implores us to remember that illness is neither an inconvenience or inevitability, but an enlivening and elemental part of being alive.
