Nathan Hill’s best-selling debut novel, The Nix, was named the number one book of 2016 by Entertainment Weekly and one of the year’s best books by The New York Times, The Washington Post, NPR, Slate, and many others. The native Iowan returns with Wellness. Moving from the gritty ’90s Chicago art scene to a suburbia of detox diets and home-renovation hysteria, this new novel mines the absurdities of modern technology and modern love to reveal profound, startling truths about intimacy and connection.
