For fans of\u00a0Wild<\/em>\u00a0and\u00a0Lab Girl<\/em>,\u00a0Heartbreak<\/em>\u00a0\u00a0\u201cthrives as an audiobook\u201d (New York Times Book Review<\/em>), merging science and self-discovery\u00a0in\u00a0an immersive experience that changes\u00a0the way we think about loneliness, health, and what it means to fall in and out of love.\u00a0\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n

When her twenty-five-year marriage unexpectedly falls apart, journalist Florence Williams expects the loss to hurt. What she doesn\u2019t expect is that she\u2019ll end up in the hospital, examining close-up the way our cells listen to loneliness. She travels to the frontiers of the science of \u201csocial pain\u201d to learn why heartbreak hurts so much and why so much of the conventional wisdom about it is wrong.<\/p>\n

In Williams\u2019 search for insight as well as personal strategies to game her way back to health, she tries it all\u2013and listeners can hear it all\u2013including exclusive (astonishing) bonus material from Williams\u2019 most intimate moments: live and unscripted therapy sessions, gab fests with girlfriends, and the making and breaking of new romantic relationships. Join her in the laboratory as she tests her blood for genetic markers of grief, hear every sound of the wilderness as she searches for awe as an antidote to loneliness, and be a fly on the wall as she is guided through psilocybin and MDMA therapy.<\/p>\n

Narrated by the author and accompanied by in-the-moment diary recordings and interviews, Florence Williams\u2019\u00a0Heartbreak<\/em><\/strong>\u00a0audiobook is an immersive endeavor that taps into one of the most shared experiences in the animal kingdom: heartbreak.<\/p>\n
