ALC from Netgalley

In this incisive essay collection, Hedva expands upon their groundbreaking "Sick Woman Theory" that reframes illness as a social experience. Opposing the definition of care in a capitalist society where giving and taking are tallied, Hedva proposes care as a revolutionary act that builds a community in which one's body is detached from its value to earn profit. I love everything about this book. Hedva holds nothing back in their indictment of our ableism by blending family stories, medical journeys, and cultural criticism. DIE is a paradigm-shifting collection on disability and easily one of my top reads of the year.
