About Dr. Gonzales-Crussi “An eloquent medical essayist…. [His] broad scholarship ... is put to masterful use in service to a paradoxically corporeal lyricism…. [He writes] rich, evocative and engrossing stories of medicine, myth and mortality…. Gonzalez–Crussi’s expertly orchestrated collisions between the graceful and the grotesque, the emotional and the clinical, and the sacred and the profane lend an air of magic realism to his writings.”— American Theatre “Gravely witty.”— Newsday “Rich in anecdote and scholarly speculation, his writing brings death to life in a way few writers have achieved.”— British Medical Journal
