Book Description
================
A prize-winning #1 bestseller in Canada, this literary Grey's Anatomy 
follows the careers and relationships that develop among a group of 
young doctors. 

Provocative, heartbreaking, and darkly humorous, Bloodletting & Miraculous 
Cures introduces readers to a masterful new voice in fiction. A practicing 
ER physician, Vincent Lam delivers a precise and intimate portrait of 
the medical profession in his fiction debut. These twelve interwoven 
stories follow a group of young doctors as they move from the challenges 
of medical school to the intense world of emergency rooms, evacuation 
missions, and terrifying new viruses. Winner of the prestigious Giller 
Prize, Bloodletting & Miraculous Cures marks the arrival of a deeply 
humane and preternaturally gifted writer. 

Fitz, Ming, Chen, and Sri are the four ambitious protagonists of Bloodletting 
& Miraculous Cures. They fall in love as they study for their exams, 
face moral dilemmas as they split open cadavers, confront police who 
rough up their patients, and treat schizophrenics with pathologies similar 
to their own. In one harrowing story set amidst the 2003 SARS crisis, 
which the author witnessed firsthand, two of these doctors suddenly 
become the patients. 

Bloodletting & Miraculous Cures invites us into a world where the ordinary 
becomes the critical in a matter of seconds. A formidable debut, it 
is a profound and unforgettable depiction of today's doctors, patients, 
and hospitals.
