This book [by Vincent Lam] has grown on me. The further I get into the book, the more I can see how great of a writer he is. He shows the deep, twisted side of the medical field...

"The crying of the child, the belligerence of drunkenness, the thin wine of a failed suicide. The noise and presence fills the waiting room, a condensation of the city's private screaming made public."
