Fever by Mary Beth Keane

4.0

This is an account of “Typhoid Mary” or Mary Mallon, an immigrant from Ireland at the turn of the 20th century in New York. The book was not told in linear form but rather back and forth as the story unfolded. Her personal life I would guess was very fictionalized but the facts of her isolation and disease were very real. A very interesting story.
