Cutting for Stone by Abraham Verghese Md
Moving from Addis Ababa to New York City and back again, Cutting for Stone is an unforgettable story of love and betrayal, medicine and ordinary miracles--and two brothers whose fates are forever intertwined.
Marion and Shiva Stone are twin brothers born of secret union between a beautiful Indian nun and a brash British surgeon. Orphaned by their mother's death and their father's disappearance, bound together by a preternatural connection and a shared fascination with medicine, the twins come of age as Ethiopia hovers on the brink of revolution.
Abraham Verghese is the author of My Own Country and Cutting for Stone. He is a practicing physician and a professor of medicine at Stanford University. His work has featured in journals such as The New Yorker, Granta, and others. He is a resident of Palo Alto, California.
