A dazzling memoir of chronic illness that explores the fraught intersection between pain, language, and gender, by a debut author.

Emily Wells spent her childhood dancing through intense pain she assumed was normal for a ballerina pushing her body to its limits. For years, no doctor could tell Wells what was wrong with her, or they told her it was all in her head.

In A Matter of Appearance, Wells traces her journey as she tries to understand and define the chronic pain she has lived with all her life. She draws on the critical works of Freud, Sontag, and others to explore the intersection between gender, pain, and language, and she traces a direct line from the “hysteria patients” at the Salpêtrière Hospital in nineteenth-century Paris to the contemporary New Age healers in Los Angeles, her stomping ground. At the crux of Wells’ literary project is the dilemma of how to diagnose an experience that is both private and public, subjective and quantifiable, and how to express all this in words.

“Gorgeously written and brilliantly argued, A Matter of Appearance uses chronic illness as a lever to investigate the life of a body. It’s complex, inconclusive, and incredibly clear-eyed. Moving fluidly between histories of psychoanalysis, desire, ambition, pathology, Wells reminds us of the liminal state we all live in between sickness and health.”
—Chris Kraus, author of Aliens & Anorexia and Summer of Hate

Rejuvenates your Robovac, but one caution
I was a little wary buying third-party aftermarket parts for my Eufy Robovac 30c, however, all the parts in this kit are virtually identical to OEM parts. I replaced all three brushes and all three filters and let it loose on my Golden Retriever-inhabited living room. I can honestly say the result was a 50% increase in the amount of fur collected. I suspect that over time there is a loss of performance so gradual that it's easy to not notice. I assume the new filters returned the vacuum power to it's original level of suction was a big factor. When I was browsing through all the available choices here on Amazon, a plastic "ring" kept appearing in many of the product images, however, people did not know what it is for or simply did not get one in their shipment. If you look at the photos I've attached one can see that I did indeed get one and figured out its purpose, to remove fur and/or hair from the horizontal brush. The bottom line is that I would definitely buy this item again. =========== EDIT, four weeks later: Since replacing the main roller brush with the one included with this product, I have experienced several “Roller brush is stuck” shutdowns and alerts. In each case, there has been nothing tangled in the brush and the brush was free to spin. I have to say it’s quite annoying to come home expecting the floor to be cleaned but only to find this error long before the job was finished. Today it gave this error twice in one cleaning cycle. I never experienced this problem with the OEM roller brush.

Euphy works good as new!
Style: 19 Pack
As soon as I opened the package everything looked the same- pre-filters, filters, main brush, and side brushes. I changed the big brush first;the only issue was the new brush body didn't have the white arrows to help aligning but that didn't affect how the brush worked. I changed filter and pre-filter, and finally the side brushes. When I turned on my "Goophy" and tried to let her run the side brushes were a little too (Goophy's side brushes sounded a little louder). I trimmed the side brushes a little and all was well. Goophy didn't want to run herself but it didn't take long for me to figure out it wasn't the new brushes ;just the operator pushing the wrong button. My Goophy Euphy did what she was supposed to do- vacuum the carpet and tile floor. Goophy Euphy still wanted to take the long way to her charging station which was nothing new and easily corrected. Over all the new brushes and filter restored Goophy Euphy back to when we first used her!
