Author

“A prismatic chronicle of mind, memory and loss.” –Patricia Lockwood, author of Will There Ever Be Another You.

An epistolary novel reminiscent of the fragmented style of Justin Torres’s Blackouts or Jenny Offill’s Weather, The Migraine Diaries follows the suffering narrator as he and the rest of his friend group cope with their friend KJ’s fatal stroke. However, as the narrator’s chronic illness refuses to relent, his own grasp on life slips further and further away. Cyclical, poetic, and hallucinatory, the novel is in part an investigation of the comorbidity of grief and illness as well as a drama on the trials and joys of daily life.
