Hustvedt stands at a podium to speak about her father and her body begins to violently shake.

Unlike a traditional illness memoir, Siri conducts a somewhat forensic inquiry into the fault lines between mind and body. Neurology, psychoanalysis, memory, literature, much like all of her essays she moves through them all without pledging allegiance to any single camp.

A story of not-knowing, rigorously inhabited. If you enjoy Maggie Nelson, Anne Carson, Rebecca Solnit and the like, Siri is for you.
