The Emperor of All Maladies reveals the many faces of an iconic, shape-shifting disease that is the defining plague of our generation. The story of cancer is a story of human ingenuity, resilience, and perseverance but also of hubris, arrogance, paternalism, and misperception, all leveraged against a disease that, just three decades ago, was thought to be easily vanquished in an all-out "war against cancer".

Very sobering

The Emperor of all Maladies is both depressing and encouraging at the same time. Providing the listener with a greater understanding of the complexities and long journey to the potential cure and treatment of cancer through the tireless efforts of so many scientists and doctors and patients……bravo!

Every family has its fault lines, and when Maggie gets a call from the ER in Maryland where her older sister lives, the cracks start to appear. Ginny, her sugar-loving and diabetic older sister with intellectual disabilities, has overdosed on strawberry Jell-O. Maggie knows Ginny really can’t live on her own, so she brings her sister and her occasionally vicious dog to live near her in upstate New York. Their other sister, Betsy, is against the idea but as a professional surfer, she is conveniently thousands of miles away. Thus, Maggie’s life as a caretaker begins.

What a wonderful read! Kept me wanting more! Maybe a sequel is in the works? The characters are all so colorful, descriptions & dialogue are written in just enough depth that I feel I know the whole family! The reading of the book clinched the deal. Every character had clearly their own identity, a challenge when only one person is telling the tale. I highly recommend this book, especially the audio version!
