En samling essÀer, betraktelser, berÀttelser som alla försöker svara pÄ en enkel men komplicerad frÄga: Vad Àr empati, egentligen? Hur lÀr sig en lÀkare att bli empatisk? Varför vill vi sÄ gÀrna vara empatiska? Vad Àr sÄ intressant med andras smÀrta? Leslie Jamison tar alltid med sig sjÀlv, sin egen olycka, sina egna tillkortakommanden (drickande, Àtstörningar, sorgsenhet) in i texterna. Ibland Àr hon lillasyster till KnausgÄrd, ibland barnbarn till Joan Didion.
