No Cure for Being Human : (and Other Truths I Need to Hear)

Book • 2021
In 'No Cure for Being Human', Kate Bowler reflects on her life after being diagnosed with cancer at age 35.

With dry wit and unflinching honesty, she critiques the modern 'best life now' advice industry that promotes exhausting positivity and the idea that one can out-eat, out-learn, and out-perform their humanness.

Bowler explores her diagnosis, ambition, and faith, emphasizing the fragility of human life and the need for truth and community in the face of adversity.

The book is a heartfelt memoir that meditates on sickness, family, and recovery, offering fresh insights on life and chronic illness.
