In January, Daniel Menaker-former New Yorker fiction editor, Random House editor-in-chief, and author of The Treatment, among many other books-received a terminal diagnosis of pancreatic cancer, and the twenty-four poems collected in TERMINALIA were written over the course of Menaker's diagnosis and treatment. The collection chronicles his "long contention with the truth": that "The illness you're fighting / And to which you will lose was Written, like this. / But uneditable, inevitable."
The Treatment
Jake Singer is heading for a life of emotional paralysis and professional mediocrity, so he turns to psychoanalysis and Dr Ernesto Morales, whose tactics are worthy of the Spanish Inquisition. But when Jake beds a beautiful socialite, it seems that everything is just what the doctor ordered.
