Product Description
From the author of Bunny, which Margaret Atwood hails as “genius,” comes a “wild, and exhilarating” (Lauren Groff) novel about a theater professor who is convinced staging Shakespeare’s most maligned play will remedy all that ails her—but at what cost?\nMiranda Fitch’s life is a waking nightmare. The accident that ended her burgeoning acting career left her with excruciating chronic back pain, a failed marriage, and a deepening dependence on painkillers. And now, she’s on the verge of losing her job as a college theater director. Determined to put on Shakespeare’s
All’s Well That Ends Well, the play that promised and cost her everything, she faces a mutinous cast hellbent on staging
Macbeth instead. Miranda sees her chance at redemption slip through her fingers.\nThat’s when she meets three strange benefactors who have an eerie knowledge of Miranda’s past and a tantalizing promise for her future: one where the show goes on, her rebellious students get what’s coming to them, and the invisible doubted pain that’s kept her from the spotlight is made known.\nWith prose Margaret Atwood has described as “no punches pulled, no hilarities dodged…genius,” Mona Awad has concocted her most potent, subversive novel yet.
All’s Well is a “fabulous novel” (Mary Karr) about a woman at her breaking point and a formidable, piercingly funny indictment of our collective refusal to witness and believe female pain.
Review
PRAISE FOR ALL’S WELL BY MONA AWAD \n“[A] sparkling valentine to the Bard. A dream of a novel, perfect for a midsummer night’s read.”

O, THE OPRAH MAGAZINE\n“Awad is a dark genius, preternaturally gifted at creating vicious, hilarious tales about the depravity inside us.....A wicked mash-up about opioid addiction, Bard nerds, Faustian deals, and a cursed play? Yes, please.”
—VULTURE\n"Awad's writing isn't merely intoxicating. It's incandescent."
—THE WASHINGTON POST\n“A surreal exploration of chronic pain, women’s believability and visibility, and desperation that straddles the line between comedy and horror.”
—NPR\n"A stealthily captivating new novel that, like its namesake, skews more dark than light as it casts its spell."
—THE BOSTON GLOBE\n"A darkly hilarious journey into the psyche of a woman approaching her breaking point."
—TIME\n"Imagine Margaret Atwood and Angela Carter traipsing through the dreamy creepiness of fairy tales while giving Shakespeare tips on female narratives."
—THE TORONTO STAR\n“Thrilling…Awad has taken Shakespeare’s premise of illness and spiritual rebirth and turned it into an inventive horror-comedy full of altered realities and uncanny weirdness.”

THE SEATTLE TIMES\n“A mystical journey complete with spectral benefactors, mysterious curses and limitless magic. Something the Bard would’ve been proud of.”

SAN DIEGO UNION TRIBUNE\n“Mona Awad has concocted her most potent, subversive novel yet.
All’s Well is the story of a woman at her breaking point and a formidable, piercingly funny indictment of our collective refusal to witness and believe female pain.”

PAPERBACK PARIS\n“Mona Awad proves in her dazzling, hilarious, wildly terrifying, virtuoso new novel, , the paradoxes and incongruities of Shakespeare’s lesser-loved play makes an ideal springboard for contemporary fiction.”
—CHRISTOPHER BOLLEN\n“As in Awad’s last novel
Bunny, things start off weird and institutional and then spiral into madness, and as in
Bunny, the experience is a fiendish delight: funny, thrilling, and creepily recognizable.”
—LITHUB\n“A brilliant noir comedy about art and illness…. Awad’s characters are deliciously over the top and impossible to forget, as is the author's gift for morbid humor….Endlessly thought-provoking and not to be missed.”—
BOOKLIST (starred review)\n“Awad artfully and acutely explores suffering, artistry, and the limitations of empathy.”—
KIRKUS REVIEWS\n“There’s both pathos and humor in this story of how we suffer and the ways in which we’re hea
