Yes I would. It connects and sheds light on many different things. It’s also very accessible to the reader. The medical terms are explained and it reads like a story. I really liked it!

that Skloot’s book was published, I confidently predicted it would be that year’s Pulitzer prize winner in the non-fiction category.

While I was wrong – it didn’t receive the award after all – I still believe that it should have: that’s how good I think this book is!

It’s one of the best non-fictions I’ve ever read—& absolutely one of the best books on medicine & ethics & cultural attitudes in America one could possibly find.

One of its very best attributes? Immortal Life reads like a novel. You could forget it’s real & imagine this is all some crazy made-up fiction—if you didn’t know that it is, terribly, true.
