All's Well by Mona Awad
Awad is a bold, stylistic writer with a sly and unfettered imagination, and All’s Well does not disappoint. Its protagonist, Miranda, is struggling with the chronic pain that ended her marriage and career as a Shakespearean actor. When forced into teaching students who reject her authority, she hits rock bottom… and becomes tempted by three mysterious men offering a magical chance for revenge and restitution to her former life. Both fantastical and grounded, this novel is a scathing indictment of the social and medical systems which refuse to acknowledge women’s pain and a compelling exploration of what happens when we give in to our darkest desires.
