In a remarkable return after 'The Fault in Our Stars', John Green offers his latest novel, 'Turtles All the Way Down'. This book, which has topped bestseller lists, is set to become a Hollywood film and has received more feedback than his previous novel. Why do we often feel a strong urge to harm ourselves? Why are we overwhelmed by intrusive thoughts, such as making a cut on our finger and not hesitating to deepen it further? Aza Holmes, a high school girl, lost her father one day right in front of her eyes and now lives with her mother, a math teacher at Aza's school. Aza suffers from severe anxiety, often manifesting as OCD and a phobia of illnesses, particularly a specific bacterium she believes could be fatal if contracted. She and her friend Daisy stumble upon a golden opportunity to earn a hundred thousand dollars, suddenly making them wealthy, but she falls in love and is haunted by a fundamental question: 'If we cannot reach certainty, can we trust our senses?'. In an atmosphere mixing obsession, love, friendship, philosophy, and 'Star Wars', John Green presents a realistic novel that captures human emotions like none before. To understand and engage with this novel, you simply have to be human!
