Picked up this book because I saw it on a reading list, and I had to take out two separate extensions from the library on it. Not for lack of inspiration – indeed, Paul Farmer M.D. is the man I wish my (non-existent) children would take after – but not exactly a book to read for pleasure or comfort. (Of course, there’s not much going on in Haiti these days for pleasure or comfort, so there’s that). Anyway, it seemed like the kind of book I should finish, so I did, but I didn’t really enjoy it.
