Our next selection for discussion is The Spirit Catches You and You Fall Down: A Hmong Child, Her American Doctors, and the Collision of Two Cultures (1997, non-fiction) by Anne Fadiman. It examines a Hmong family from Laos with a child with epilepsy, and their cultural, linguistic, and medical struggles with the American healthcare system.
