Critics Review
‘This genre-defying journey into the science of classification weaves memoir and history in shimmering prose’ - Guardian‘I want to live at this books address: the intersection of history and biology and wonder and failure and sheer human stubbornness. What a sumptuous, surprising, dark delight’ - Carmen Maria Machado, author of In the Dream House‘Here is a book that hops nimbly between biography and autobiography, gritty science and lovelorn self-help. And its final, happy leap into the unknown is just astonishing’ - Prospect Magazine‘Her book took me to strange depths I never imagined, and I was smitten’ - New York Times Book Review‘A story told with an open heart, every page of it animated by verve, nuance, and full-throated curiosity’ - Leslie Jamison, author of Make It Scream, Make It Burn
