About the Author
Suleika Jaouad is an award-winning writer, illustrator, and advocate whose work explores the intersections of illness, identity, and resilience. Diagnosed with leukemia at age 22, she chronicled her journey through cancer treatment and recovery in her poignant New York Times column 'Life, Interrupted,' which reached millions and inspired a vibrant community of readers. Her debut memoir, Between Two Kingdoms: A Memoir of a Life Interrupted, delves into the liminal spaces between sickness and health, drawing from her experiences as a young woman navigating the uncertainties of life post-diagnosis. A graduate of Princeton University, Jaouad has contributed to publications like The Atlantic and Vogue, and her art and writing continue to illuminate the human spirit's capacity for hope and transformation amid adversity.
