Literally Show Me a Healthy Person
It's a book of grief and anxiety, of questions and confessions. One that explores the way pain and anxiety can be simultaneously public and private, constant but not always at the top of a person's mind. A book that asks: what if the words we angrily (or drunkenly) tap out on our phones, that we save as notes, or send to ex lovers, or post publicly on social media, the ones we send without bothering to correct for typos, are the words we mean the most?

About the Author
Wilder, Darcie: - Darcie Wilder lives in New York City
Praise for this book
literally show me a healthy person reads like the schizo-monologue of a young, wired maniac who's given up trying to figure out where and why the fuck they are, why anything is what it is, why anything. In here, all rules are off, all time is broken, and all ideas are drugs. Who the hell writes like this about daily life? Darcie Wilder does.--Blake Butler
Darcie Wilder's literally show me a healthy person is a book of aphorisms and short texts in the vein of Fernando Pessoa, if Pessoa grew up on Blink-182, found his voice on Twitter and had cum in his tights. Like the internet, what at first appears fragmented and tethered to fleeting moments of pop, builds movingly into a more timeless narrative of death, love, longing and disappointment that flows between all of us. So Sad Today--Melissa Broder
Darcie Wilder is the female Raymond Carver and her book is the best thing you'll read all year.--Playboy
This book is what they have you drink so that you'll throw up all the poison. Or it's just more, better poison. I don't know. I'm not a doctor.--DVS
Darcie Wilder's literally show me a healthy person is the new hero in my reading life. This book is funny and wild and free. This book is the future of writing.--Scott McClanahan
