Cutting for Stone
Abraham Verghese
This emotionally riveting family saga follows the lives of twin brothers born of a secret union between an Indian nun and a British surgeon at a mission hospital in Addis Ababa. Bound together by a shared fascination with medicine, the twins come of age as Ethiopia hovers on the brink of revolution. Love, not politics, tears them apart and forces one to flee to America. As he works as an intern at a New York City hospital, his past catches up with him, leading to an unforgettable journey to heal and reconcile with those who betrayed him.
