The Blood of Strangers by Frank Huyler
A haunting and exquisitely-observed collection of medical vignettes that brilliantly captures the intense drama of the Emergency Room‘Unforgettable’
Sunday Times
‘Set to become a classic.’
Independent
‘A breathtakingly brilliant portrait, sketched so elegantly that if it were done in pencil it would only consist of a few sharp lines.’
The Times
‘One of the best writers to emerge since the death of Raymond Carver. He moves medicine out of the realm of science and into the domain of humanity.’
Red
- ‘Dr Huyler’s short, intense book treats of only the most important matters: life and death. This is a young writer with a big mind – and an even bigger heart.’
Paul Auster - ‘If Raymond Carver had been a doctor, these are the stories he would have written. There are no untarnished heroes here. This is the world as it is: lovely and disturbing all at once.’
Atul Gawande, New Yorker
