Abraham Verghese's book takes place in Ethiopia, a country of intrigue, beauty and coups. The story is told in the voice of Marion, one of the twin boys born to an unlikely couple in a mission hospital. The twins come of age as Ethiopia hovers on the brink of revolution. But it is the love of a woman that forces Marion to leave his home country and go to America. When the past catches up with him, he must entrust his life to the two men he thought he trusted the least in the world. This is an unforgettable journey into one man's remarkable life and an epic story about power, intimacy and the beauty of the work of healing others.
