Title: So-So
Review: I struggled to get through this book. I thought it would be more along the lines of true stories about women who had visited a remote clinic for fistulas. Instead, it was an accounting of the history of a fistula hospital, the fundraising efforts to run the hospital and a few anectodal mentions of the women who passed through their doors. I got tired of the author waxing prolific about how wonderful and hardworking her husband was ("OK... fine. I get it already. He was wonderful, a saint, blah blah blah" I thought to myself many times). The author also repeated herself several times throughout the book and I think parts of it could have been edited better to avoid this.At this point I have no desire to read more books about fistual patients and fistula hospitals. I was drawn to this book after reading "Cutting for Stone" but this just didn't do it for me and would have a hard time recommending it to anyone else.
Is the review positive or negative?
