Description:
"Judith's Pavilion" is an imaginary hospital wing where practicing neurosurgeon Marc Flitter allows his failures to become beautifully crafted true stories of the fragility and meaning of life itself. Readers meet a variety of compassionately-drawn real-life characters, including: Ann, the beautiful young woman whom Flitter wanted to share a life with, but ended up sharing in her autopsy instead; Hampton, the elevator operator whose brain was ruined by the surgery that was supposed to end his epilepsy; and Judith, the warm grandmotherly woman whose brain tumor leaves.
Expand description
Combining the lyricism of William Carlos Williams with the medical drama of ER, this powerful collection of short stories written by a neurosurgeon received acclaim from many national publications upon its debut.
"His gripping stories are heart-breaking and deeply moving.... This remarkable book makes the operating room a theater of human drama, tragedy and occasional triumph". -- Publishers Weekly (starred review)
