About
"A novel of whispered intimacies and privileged communications, The Case of Doctor Sachs weaves together scene after scene of people's lives in a small town as they wait to see their doctor, then share with him their reasonable complaints, beliefs, and life-stories. The doctor is a man whose pity for his fellow creatures is his own untreatable condition - until a love story emerges between the good doctor and one of his patients.
And Doctor Sachs himself is writing a book - one not unlike The Case of Doctor Sachs - a critique of the medical profession and a celebration of the power of literature to save lives that medicine cannot."--BOOK JACKET.
