What was clear to Carmon from her dozen years of reporting--and from what she felt in her bones--was how incomplete the American story of reproduction had been, and how much had been unexpressed, hidden, or taken for granted, and not just by conservative justices or in red states. Whether in cosmopolitan, liberal New York City or rural Alabama, the entire system is broken. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ci\u003eUnbearable \u003c\/i\u003etells a deeper story, going beyond the headlines and any one experience or choice, and grounded in history and journalism. It introduces us to five women navigating pregnancy care--from that first positive pregnancy test through joy, loss, and the unforeseen--in a country that is at best indifferent and at worst willfully cruel, and to brave, outnumbered people fighting to make it better. Written with deep empathy and analytical rigor, \u003ci\u003eUnbearable \u003c\/i\u003eis at once a moving story of interconnection, a harrowing expos?, and assertion of humanity. Above all, it is a powerful call for solidarity, regardless of our circumstances or our decisions.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Irin Carmon\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1668032600\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781668032602\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Atria\/One Signal Publishers\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 10\/28\/2025\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 320\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.13lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.83d","brand":"Irin Carmon","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":46602912399615,"sku":"9781668032602","price":30.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_d835a420-8bb6-4c10-9508-a3204e8ee41d.jpg?v=1739695656","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/unbearable-irin-carmon-9781668032602","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
