Description
Jane Austen on Steroids is a sharp and wicked exploration of the wellness industry. Michael Cunningham, author of The Hours, praises the book as "intoxicating" and a "wellness tonic for people who like to make fun of the wellness industry". Jessie Gaynor's novel is a humorous and satirical take on the world of self-care and social media. At its core, the book is about Jane Dorner, a complex and multifaceted character with two distinct modes. On the surface, she's a confident and charismatic figure, but beneath the façade lies a person struggling to make ends meet and find inner peace. When Jane discovers a wellness retreat on Instagram, she sees an opportunity to transform her life and climb the social ladder. However, as the story unfolds, it becomes clear that inner peace and glowing skin come at a price. This thought-provoking novel is a commentary on the darker side of the wellness industry and the lengths people will go to achieve a perfect online persona.
