Ehrenreich was overwhelmed by the overwhelming presence of pink ribbons and platitudes that followed her breast cancer diagnosis. To her surprise, she encountered a widespread perception among health professionals and other professionals that her anger was deemed unhealthy and even dangerous. This pervasive attitude extended across various domains, including health, academia, the economy, and even the Iraq War. In her book, Ehrenreich meticulously uncovers a trail of denial, delusion, and bad faith, exposing the often catastrophic consequences of perpetuating a façade of happiness. This thought-provoking and compelling work challenges the pervasive American obsession with positive thinking, offering a sharp-witted and incisive critique.
