Read by the author

As a specialist in palliative medicine, Dr Rachel Clarke strives to forge human connections at times of crisis. Her tender and uplifting memoir reveals how love and kindness can be found in the darkest of places.

Dr Clarke considers how medical school, along with society’s reticence when talking about dying, can leave young doctors ill prepared for dealing with death.
