false <![CDATA[Rückkehr nach Missing]]> 3591262 13 A stunning debut novel from the author of My Own Country: an enthralling family saga of Africa and America, fathers and sons, doctors and patients, exile and home. Marion and Shiva Stone are twin scions of a secret union between a beautiful Indian nun and a brash British surgeon at a mission hospital in Addis Ababa. Orphaned by their mother’s death in childbirth and their father’s disappearance, bound together by a shared fascination with medicine, the brothers come of age as Ethiopia hovers on the brink of revolution. Yet it will not be politics, but love—their passion for the same woman—that will tear them apart and force Marion, fresh out of medical school, to flee his homeland. He makes his way to America, finding work as an intern at an underfunded Bronx hospital. When the past catches up to him—nearly destroying him—Marion must entrust his life to the two men he thought he trusted least in the world: the father who abandoned him and the brother who betrayed him. Cutting for Stone—intensely suspenseful, deeply moving, and unexpectedly funny—is both an unforgettable journey into one man’s remarkable life and an epic story about the power, intimacy, and curious beauty of the work of healing others. 3633533 3 2 2009 Cutting for Stone total:1539|5:785|4:554|3:146|2:43|1:11| 1539 6676 3605 616 3591262 0375414495 9780375414497 1520 611 Cutting for Stone 4.34 http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1255630895m/3591262.jpg http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/3591262.Cutting_for_Stone 5 7 false Sun Nov 01 00:00:00 -0700 2009 Mon Jan 26 17:49:17 -0800 2009 Mon Jan 26 18:03:59 -0800 2009 1 more...]]> 3591262 0375414495 9780375414497 1520 611 Cutting for Stone 4.34 http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1255630895m/3591262.jpg http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/3591262.Cutting_for_Stone 5 11 false Sun Jan 18 17:49:48 -0800 2009 Tue Feb 10 10:38:26 -0800 2009 more...]]> 3591262 0375414495 9780375414497 1520 611 Cutting for Stone 4.34 http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1255630895m/3591262.jpg http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/3591262.Cutting_for_Stone 5 3 false Thu Jan 01 00:00:00 -0800 2009 Fri Jan 30 10:49:58 -0800 2009 Fri Jan 30 10:54:23 -0800 2009 more...]]> 3591262 0375414495 9780375414497 1520 611 Cutting for Stone 4.34 http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1255630895m/3591262.jpg http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/3591262.Cutting_for_Stone 5 4 false Sat Jan 31 00:00:00 -0800 2009 Wed Jan 14 15:36:25 -0800 2009 Sat Jan 31 19:21:31 -0800 2009
