I found this book in a small, lovely bookshop in Nantucket and read it in two days. Michele Harper is an African American ED physician who writes about her life as a woman and physician – her marriage, its end after medical school, and her gradual realization that we are all broken and must heal.
It’s about courage and fear. Justice and compassion. Making peace with the past and moving on. Working with and learning from our patients. It’s about her life and our lives and it’s amazing.
