Description
Sanatorium is a mesmerising debut that explores the complexities of the body and its relationship with illness. Abi Palmer's lucid prose weaves together memoir, poetry and meditations to create a dreamlike narrative.
The book follows a young woman as she navigates her recovery from an experience at a thermal water-based rehabilitation facility in Budapest, and her attempts to continue her progress in her own home. Through contrasting spaces and themes, Palmer creates a unique and thought-provoking exploration of what it means to be alive.
