Title: The Gifts of the Body by Rebecca Brown ISBN: 0060926538 Publisher: Perennial Pub. Date: September, 1995 Format: Paperback Volumes: 1 List Price(USD): $12.00 |
Average Customer Rating: 4.6
Rating: 4
Summary: It has some flaws, but overall it's an interesting read
Comment: I don't think this book is the best thing since peanut butter, but considering most of the schmaltz out there about AIDS, this is a fairly realistic and unsentimental novel (it reads like non-fiction, and in some ways it is) about taking care of people who are ill. One could make the argument that her tone can be condescending at times--home-health care aides aren't always entirely honest--but it didn't take away from my enjoyment. In fact, I read it in one day.
Rating: 4
Summary: Engrossing
Comment: I picked this book up in the store and read the whole thing right there (and then forgot the title and author! I'm glad to have rediscovered this information). The book doesn't quite feel like fiction-- with its attentiveness to detail and its impressive ability to convey the complexities of both author's and patients' situations, all the characters feel so real. What was the Kirkus Reviewer yawning over?
Rating: 5
Summary: incredible
Comment: This is one of the best books I have ever read. That Kirkus review is wildly off-base. The Gifts of the Body broke my heart.
