Leslie Jamison: The Empathy Exams Essays (2014, Graywolf Press) 4 stars

Review of 'The Empathy Exams Essays' on 'Goodreads'

4 stars

Beautifully Creatively written. I felt most captivated by the first and last chapters and the reason why I give this book four stars instead of five is that I found myself feeling disinterested in the middle chapters where I had a hard time following the story and why it pertains to the books topic.

but.... if I could get all my friends to read the last chapter on women and pain, I would. It is incredible and has articulated thoughts on the trope of women being "overly emotional", "too much" so well. It resonated with me so much. So good.
