Like the title of the book, this is a story with many levels of significance. It is a wonderful, well-written, long book. It is full of medical and literary references. It deals with culture, religion, politics, race, and language. The story informs the concepts of self, genetics, parentage, adoption. I could go on.
The medicine is of course impeccable, given the medical stature of the author.
If I gave out stars for the books on my list ... let me just say as I have said for some other books on this list, "Do yourself a favor, read this book, you are in for a treat."
