A moving chronicle about finding your way home
I’ve been listening to this series from the very beginning, and just finished it. Unwell is a deep sit - a meticulously-unfolding narrative that invests deeply in its world and characters, and steadfastly refuses to hold your hand. The reward for paying close attention is a rich and considered multi-valent story about a group of lovable misfits trying to understand a profound and mysterious terror. The storytelling takes its time in a way that feels wrenchingly true: it’s extremely relatable to listen to folks gradually coming to terms with the fact that something is very wrong, resisting the call to reckon with its origins, and eventually recognizing that the only way out is through. Along the way, they end up living their lives in ways they never imagined. Real life doesn’t hold your hand either - and Mount Absalom, for all of its mysteries, feels jarring familiar.
