Forever Inside Us
Microplastics, PFAS, and the Chemical Age of the Human BodyBy Bruno Sennett
Length8h 20m
About this audiobook
What if modern pollution did not stay outside us?
Forever Inside Us is a sharp, unsettling investigation into microplastics, PFAS, and the chemical age of the human body. Bruno Sennett explores how industrial residues from packaging, cookware, textiles, water systems, cosmetics, food chains, dust, air, and disposable products moved into the most intimate place imaginable.
The body.
This is not a detox book. It is not a panic manual. It is not a guide to shopping your way into purity.
It is an evidence-led work of cultural science about exposure without consent, the persistence of forever chemicals, the rise of microplastics, and the impossible burden placed on individuals to manage risks they cannot fully see.
For listeners drawn to urgent popular science, environmental health, and serious nonfiction, Forever Inside Us reveals a disturbing truth.
The body is not ruined because the world has entered it.
But it should change what we accept from the world.
