But unlike most, this fever doesn't go away; it's constant, low-level, and exhausting. After spending weeks Googling his symptoms and documenting his illness, he finally sees a doctor. A series of blood tests, anxious visits to hospitals, and repeated misdiagnoses ensue, until the truth is finally revealed: Jonathan is HIV-positive. As Jonathan comes to terms with what this diagnosis will mean for him, his future, and his relationships, he also takes the reader back in time, in search of his history, to the suburbs where he grew up, and from which he feels he has escaped: Rozzano, the ghetto of Milan, and of Italy's north. In the vein of Édouard Louis and Virginie Despentes, Fever is at once a deeply personal story and a searing examination of class, poverty, prejudice, and opportunity in modern Europe.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 354g\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimension\u003c\/strong\u003e: 135 x 209 x 28 (mm)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN-13\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9781913348830\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Jonathan Bazzi","offers":[{"title":"Paperback \/ softback","offer_id":44102456344826,"sku":"9781913348830","price":10.97,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0522\/4297\/2845\/products\/1665769386770_book.jpg?v=1665932727","url":"https:\/\/shulphink.com\/products\/fever-9781913348830","provider":"Shulph Ink","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
