Title: . A Doctor’s Life
Author: .William T Close MD
Line/Publisher: .Meadowlark Springs Productions
Release Date: .2001
ISBN: 0 90337108
Highly recommended 5 stars
Writer Close’s narrative is readable, captivating and fills the reader with a good feeling for having read the narrative. Close captures his characters from the prim, but tipsy, little NYC lady wearing her pillbox hat to The Mango kid in far off Africa in a delicate balance between revealing too much and stating too little. Some of the people Dr. Close treated were not of the ‘upper crust’ of society. All are presented in an even handed, absorbing manner by a writer who obviously has enjoyed a lifetime engaged in the work he loves.
