One of the best books I've read in a long time. Paul Kalanithi aspired to be a writer before he became a surgeon and the words just flow. Yes, it's a sad story, sad that we lost someone this gifted at any early age, but he gives us the gift by sharing his life, his desire to find meaning in life, his illness, and his death. Do look up Bill Gates review of this book. It's far more eloquent that what I've shared. Also, look up Lucy Kalanithi and her life after Paul. Sometimes new opportunities come in strange ways...
