Cutting for Stone (2009) is a novel written by Ethiopian-born Indian-American medical doctor and author Abraham Verghese. It is a saga of twin brothers, orphaned by their mother's death at their births and forsaken by their father. The book includes both a deep description of medical procedures and an exploration of the human side of medical practices.
When first published, the novel was on The New York Times Best Seller list for two years and generally received well by critics. With its positive reception, Barack Obama put it on his summer reading list and the book was optioned for adaptations.
Una historia maravillosa y conmovedora de los hermanos ShivaMarion que se te va incrustando en el alma conforme avanzas en sus páginas; al principio algo lento pero luego el escritor muestra su pericia haciéndote olvidar completamente que fue escrita y la vives. La vives.
