No writer has succeeded in capturing the medical and human drama of illness as honestly and as eloquently as Oliver Sacks.

During the last few months of his life, he wrote a set of essays in which he movingly explored his feelings about completing a life and coming to terms with his own death.

“It is the fate of every human being,�� Sacks writes, “to be a unique individual, to find his own path, to live his own life, to die his own death.��

Together, these four essays form an ode to the uniqueness of each human being and to gratitude for the gift of life.]]> 49 Oliver Sacks 0345811364 Janet 0 to-read 4.15 2015

Compassionate, dramatic, and deeply moving, "To Kill A Mockingbird" takes readers to the roots of human behavior - to innocence and experience, kindness and cruelty, love and hatred, humor and pathos. Now with over 18 million copies in print and translated into forty languages, this regional story by a young Alabama woman claims universal appeal. Harper Lee always considered her book to be a simple love story. Today it is regarded as a masterpiece of American literature.]]> 323 Harper Lee 0060935464 Janet 0 to-read 4.25 1960
