“…..for anyone interested in medicine, or in courage, this is a book to read….”
“In Six Months in Sudan, James Maskalyk tells of his extraordinary experiences working as a doctor for MSF, without a trace of vanity or self-congratulation. His book serves as a salutary reminder of what it means to be an excellent doctor, and a brave man. For anyone who is interested in a career in medicine, or in courage, this is a book to read.”
— Gabriel Weston, author of Direct Red: A Surgeon’s View of Her Life-Or-Death Profession
An incredible story that is told vividly and straight from the heart. Maskalyk dosn’t only relate the details of his work in Sudan,but shares the emotions and the humaness of the work so clearly that one feels trasported to the world of MSF in Abyei. Brilliant work James.
A page turner of a book, raw & immediate. Not always easy, but that’s the point. It left me feeling restless and inspired, and I hope this blog keeps that feeling alive for all who come in contact with it. Congrats James – you write good, you done good.
James, you had me right there with you! Thank-you for sharing this journey. Your brave work as a doctor and now author are truly inspiring.
