The Sturgis Motorcycle Rally is one of the biggest rallies (and most important cultural touchstones) in the American West. Diagnosing Sturgis looks at it through the eyes of a biker-MD. The event lain bare in the way only an insider and a doctor can. The people that visit the event come from all walks of life and their passion for motorcycles brings them together to push aside differences and embrace another life, even if only for a short period. This is the definitive diagnosis of what Sturgis is and its place in the American psyche.

In sixteen wholly original essays that blend memoir, cultural criticism, investigative journalism, and a dash of fanfiction, Walker places her own experiences within the larger context of the pressing and underdiscussed aspects of contemporary American womanhood that make up daily life.

“There is no good way to state these facts, which must be acknowledged. My husband and I had two children and lost them both: Vincent in 2017, at sixteen, James in 2024, at nineteen. Both chose suicide, and both died not far from home.” There is no good way to say this—because words fall short. It takes only an instant for death to become fact, “a single point in a timeline.” Living now on this single point, Li turns to thinking and reasoning and searching for words that might hold a place for James.
