The Remedy by Adam Haslett

4.0

I can see how some readers wouldn't like this story and would, in fact, find it very triggering. As someone who has a chronic illness, though, I didn't feel that way about this story, and I think how people who have experience with chronic illnesses feel about it will largely be determined by what their own personal experience with their illness is like.

For me, it was a creepy and atmospheric read, reminding me of some of my favorite short stories from my school days, and it's one that will rattle around in my head and stick with me for a good, long while.
