Cutting For Stone by Abraham Verghese

A wonderful story of twin boys set in Ethiopia where an Indian couple adopt the babies when their mother, a nun, dies in childbirth.The culture and the life of this area is fascinating. As grown men their lives diverge but many surprises come their way there and in America.

Truly enjoyed this book. It is more enjoyable to the persons in the medical profession or persons familiar with medical terminology, because there is quite a bit in there, including great procedural detail. Apart from that, it is well written, and the ending is quite unexpected.
