The authors of these narratives are diverse in age, ethnicity, family situation, sexual orientation, and economic status. “Stories of Illness and Healing” bridges the artificial divide between women’s lives and scholarship in gender, health, and medicine. The collection includes a variety of women’s illness narratives – poetry, essays, short fiction, short drama, analyses, and transcribed oral testimonies – as well as traditional analytic essays about themes and issues raised by the narratives. “Stories of Illness and Healing” is the first collection to place the voices of women experiencing illness alongside analytical writing from prominent scholars in the field of narrative medicine.
