This book is by a dermatologist and writer. I own a copy but listened to it on Audible.com. The story centers on an Italian boy with leukemia and his bone marrow transplant (BMT). All of the characters are alive. Especially memorable are Nina (the nurse), Luca (the patient), Joseph (the bone marrow donor). The story has many layers -- from the science of bone marrow transplantation, to complex family relationships in Italy and Brooklyn. The subplots will resonate with me for some time. I give this the strongest recommendation!
