'One of the most beautiful books you will ever read' Kate Mosse
In this powerful testimony, Joanna Cannon tells her story as a young doctor through vivid, emotional moments.
We walk with her through the clinics, facing extraordinary and terrifying moments: from witnessing her first autopsy, to sitting with a patient during their final moments, as well as learning the power that a correctly or incorrectly chosen word can have. These moments, along with the small enduring acts of kindness and connection that punctuate life in the hospital, teach her that emotional care and mental health are as critical as restoring a heart.
In a profession where weakness remains taboo, this moving and beautifully written book brings to life the vivid, human stories of doctors and patients - and shows us why we should take better care of those who take care of us.
