Honestly, I am not a theatre or play person. I actually don’t understand Shakespearean literature and never had any inclination to want to be apart of that world. 

However, this book was a surprise to me. This book gives the reader a good idea of what’s it’s like to live and exist with chronic pain. I myself have chronic pain. I too am often gaslighted by people close to me, not believed by healthcare providers, and feel like a burden. 

This book examines chronic illness but with a twist. What happens when you have forced to walk a mile in someone’s shoes? What happens when you have to eat your hurtful words?
