Title: A Wonderful Study of a Special Friendship
Product review: This is a profound book about friendship and the human soul. Verghese is a perceptive physician who has studied the human body and mind and is able to share his insights in beautiful prose. He has made many keen observations of the motivations and behavior of physicians and perhaps all professionals. "A child will always feel insufficient and powerless in a world of adults" is an example.Adults find themselves on dark paths. They can come out by reaching to human connections."Keep the ball in play. Keep your eye on the ball. Follow through. These are admonitions for both tennis and life."My comments do not capture the insightful mind and pithy writing of this author.A friend described this story as very sad. That may be true but the writing is spare and clear and the author has described the meaning of friendship with extraordinary feeling.
