Tuberculosis has been entwined with hu­manity for millennia. Once romanticized as a malady of poets, today tuberculosis is seen as a disease of poverty that walks the trails of injustice and inequity we blazed for it.

In 2019, author John Green met Henry Reider, a young tuberculosis patient at Lakka Government Hospital in Sierra Leone. John be­came fast friends with Henry, a boy with spindly legs and a big, goofy smile. In the years since that first visit to Lakka, Green has become a vocal advocate for increased access to treatment and wider awareness of the healthcare inequi­ties that allow this curable, preventable infec­tious disease to also be the deadliest, killing over a million people every year.

In Everything Is Tuberculosis, John tells Henrys story, woven through with the scientific and social histories of how tuberculosis has shaped our worldand how our choices will shape the future of tuberculosis.

Arvustused

Earnest and empathetic * New York Times * Everything Is Tuberculosis doesnt so much tell you the story of tuberculosis, as much as it gently holds your hand and parts the curtains into one of the darkest, most bizarre, and frustrating series of decisions in world history with the other... A quintessential John Green book: one that grapples with the issue of mortality and our conflicting desires to both help and hurt one another, all within the backdrop of the coming of age of a young man * Slate * Green uses the stories of real people to turn overwhelming problems into something personal and understandable. * The Associated Press * This highly readable call to action could not be more timely * Kirkus, starred review * Henrys story is hopeful and heartbreaking; readers will be rooting for him and his family the whole way through * SLJ, starred review * Green writes expertly of the illnesss history, causes (malnutrition, poverty, bad sanitation, etc.), and cure Insightful and extremely well and clearly written, Everything Is Tuberculosis makes what might be inaccessible accessible * Booklist, starred review * In these challenging times, the global health community is fortunate to count on Green and his inspiring advocacy * Madhukar Pai, MD, PhD, The Lancet * A story of hope and tragedy that feels terribly relevant at a time when the global healthcare system is coming under attack. * The AV Club * An exceptional combination of memoir, medical history and cultural analysis. Memorably probes the intersections of medicine and human emotion * BookPage, starred review *
