  • "Everything Is Tuberculosis" by John Green

    "Everything Is Tuberculosis" by John Green
    Sep 11 2025
    "Everything Is Tuberculosis" by John Green is a thought-provoking journey into illness, advocacy, and the stories we tell about health. Part memoir, part cultural critique, this nonfiction work traces how Green’s encounter with Henry Reider—a young patient battling drug-resistant tuberculosis —sparked a deep exploration of global health inequities and our collective failure to treat what is preventable and curable. Is it urgent or overwhelming? Compassionate or overly earnest? Hosts Kacy and Tyler untangle Green’s personal narrative, the book’s broader historical and social context, and the power of storytelling to spur change so you can decide if this one belongs in your regular reading rotation or on your “must-read later” list.

Beautiful or brutal?
