Between Two Kingdoms

A Memoir of a Life Interrupted

Book • 2020

In 'Between Two Kingdoms,' Suleika Jaouad recounts her life-altering experience with acute myeloid leukemia.

Diagnosed at 22, she undergoes extensive treatment, including chemotherapy and a bone marrow transplant.

The book is divided into two main parts: her time in the 'kingdom of the sick' and her journey back to the 'kingdom of the well.

' After recovery, Jaouad embarks on a 100-day, 15,000-mile road trip across the country to meet people who supported her during her illness.

The memoir explores themes of survivorship, identity, and the challenges of reentering the world after a life-threatening illness.
