Publisher's Summary

"Beautiful."—Sarah Jessica Parker

"The best thing you'll read this year."—Kiley Reid, author of Such a Fun Age

A raw, tenderly comic, and perfectly off-kilter novel about a woman who occasionally finds herself in "The Pit”—a delirious state of semiconsciousness—and the improbable, sometimes imagined people who meet her there.

Vita Woods is on the brink. She produces a popular podcast and lives with her successful doctor boyfriend, Max, with whom the sex is great and the future promising. Her brilliant if unreliable sister, Gracie, is her best friend and sparring partner. And her steadfast goldfish, Whitney Houston, brightens even her dimmest days. But as much as things are going right, the days are dark. Vita is not leaving the house. In fact, she can barely make it out of bed.

Instead, she spends long, blurred hours falling in and out of The Pit, dead to the world and to herself. For months, Vita has been sick with an illness that no doctor, not even Max, can diagnose. And recently, Luigi, a Renaissance poet nursing a 500-year-old heartbreak, has started showing up at her bedside, bringing snacks and unsolicited romantic advice. He says he’s come to release her. The issue is: he may be a ghost, an apparition of her sickly mind.

Then, when an unexpected mix-up pushes her into the path of her upstairs neighbors, Vita finds friendship—and perhaps more—in the apartment above. But something about her "condition" keeps nagging at her. What if the problem is Vita herself? Because as far as anyone can prove . . . there’s nothing wrong with her.

What the critics say

"Weinberg explores the trials of chronic illness through a darkly comic lens. . . Readers looking for a companion to Ottessa Moshfegh's My Year Of Rest And Relaxation and Meg Mason's Sorrow and Bliss will devour Weinberg's latest."Booklist (starred review)

"Weinberg [packs] a lot into this slender novel. There’s rage at a medi­cal establishment that won’t take women’s pain seriously, and a cargo ship’s tonnage of famil­ial trauma. But there’s also the life-enhancing, life-saving power of love and friendship, and the strength of Vita’s unquenchable need to be healthy in body and mind. Maybe her name isn’t so ironic after all." BookPage

"Gloriously original, funny, and frighteningly observant, reading Kate Weinberg’s There’s Nothing Wrong with Her is like reading your brain turned inside out and seeing all the chaos that goes inside, as written by an author with an astuteness and clarity of voice that is captivating and entirely brilliant. I loved it!" —Ore Agbaje-Williams, author of The Three of Us
