Duck Blood Soup

the long version

Author Michael Palmar called Duck Blood Soup, "a powerful, haunting story," and a, "well-written, important, intensely engaging novel [that] chronicles the addiction of a physician with sensitivity and fearlessness." He said of the author, "Molea knows the inner workings of addiction as well as anyone, and writes about them with passion and compassion." Palmer, himself a physician and the author of nine medical mysteries, said, "I have spent decades searching for ways to help people understand drug and alcohol addiction in physicians. Now, I will begin by recommending this book." Review The energy gleaned from the author's personal knowledge of sufferings, and that endured by his colleagues, is what fuels this most talented writer's work. Molea's writing is excellent...literary...and he never forgets how to pin the urgency of an addict. --http://girlondemand.blogspot.com/2005/04/duck-blood-soup-by-joseph-molea.html Reading the book ..provoked me into pondering...the problem of drug addiction among physicians and surgeons. --http://thebestreviews.com/review9144 This book [from] a doctor with high qualifications in the field was a real treat for my mystery loving mind... --http://www.newmysteryreader.com/books_we_love_2.htm
