Blood of Strangers. True stories from the emergency room
9.99 €
An exquisitely crafted collection of gripping medical notes in the style of Chekhov's prose. Superbly captures the drama of emergency room life. In this book, Frank Hyler, poet and physician from Albuquerque, sheds light in the form of short stories on the side of medicine where every elusive moment of a doctor's daily routine is woven into the life or death of the seriously ill or maimed. He introduces us to a host of interesting characters who become not only patients but also colleagues: a practitioner of witchcraft; a neurosurgeon; a trauma surgeon who unexpectedly commits suicide; a wounded killer; and a man who is pursued into the New Mexico desert by a deadly missile. At times surreal, at times lyrical, at times violent and horrifying, Blood of Strangers is a moving writing debut from a representative of one of the most challenging fields of modern medicine.
