Virginia Woolf wrote the title essay "On Being Ill" originally in 1926, shortly after a world wide pandemic. In this anthology it was published again, alongside the poignant and excellent contributions by contemprory writers who have been asking themselves similar questions as Woolf did, whilst experiencing pain, sickness and suffering, but also epiphanies, creativitiy and foresight. Writers from across the United Kingdom, America, and Ireland have conributed each in their own individual style on the topics of illness and literature. Poet Deryn Rees-Jones wrote the preface. Other authors include Lucia Osborne-Crowley, Nafsissa Thompson-Spires, Nadia de Vries, Mieke van Zonneveld, Lieke Marsman and Jameisha Prescod and Sinéad Gleeson. The anthology finishes with Audre Lorde's introduction to her Cancer Journals. The Dutch essays were translated by Sophie Collins.
