The Invisible Kingdom: Reimagining Chronic Illness is a 2022 medical memoir by Meghan O'Rourke, published by Riverhead Books, an imprint of Penguin Random House. The memoir details O'Rourke's decade-long struggle with debilitating chronic illness and the medical system's inadequacy in properly diagnosing and treating her. O'Rourke initially documented her experience in a 2013 piece in The New Yorker titled "What's wrong with me?", and developed the narrative into a memoir. The book was a finalist for the 2022 National Book Award for Nonfiction.
