This is the reason we write books. This is the reason we read books. A story about something; love, sacrifice, spirituality and belief, set in an exotic setting of Ethiopia. So pour a coffee martini (coffee's their drink, martini is a tribute to the book when it moves to NY). I was hooked - no pun intended - by this story of Siamese Twins (my documentary Bound by Flesh is on the Hilton twins). But this book and its doctor(s) heros moved me like I haven't been moved in so long. The love the author poured into taking his time with his characters, and the turbulent political setting makes me wonder why I didn't pick up this book before. As you know - I don't give away plot, just suggest the drink to go with it and say "yes" don't wait like I did. A great - and I mean great - book.
