BOOK REVIEW: ‘When Breath Becomes Air’ by Paul Kalanithi
WOW! Both incredibly well written and brutal, ‘When Breath Becomes Air’ is a memoir from Paul Kalanithi about his career as an award winning neurosurgeon, confronting life and death on a daily basis, and viewing this from a well researched and wide ranging literature study and personal experience.
What makes the book even more hard hitting was Paul’s own journey through cancer and eventual death {not a spoiler}.
The book provides some incredibly personal and touching thought on the difficult topic of death but also highlights the wonderful opportunity to celebrate life. Well worth a read!
9/10
