Description: "Danielle Ofri is a finely gifted writer, a born storyteller as well as a born physician."--Oliver Sacks, MD, author of The Man Who Mistook His Wife for a Hat "A gifted storyteller, Ofri provides vivid details that bring readers right into the exam room with her . . . describing how her patients' histories stirred her to practice medicine more compassionately, inspired her with their hope and fortitude." Sarah Halzack, Washington Pos t "Danielle Ofri's new work presents the reader with artfully controlled chaos. . . . Brisk, fast-paced, and organized with an eye both to variety and recurrence."Rachel Hadas, Times Literary Supplement "Her writing tumbles forth with color and emotion. She demonstrates an ear for dialogue, a humility about the limits of her medical training, and an extraordinary capacity to be touched by human suffering."--Jan Gardner, Boston Globe
