A Wigwam for a Goose's Bridle

For me, the struggle with this book is determining the target audience. As a doctor, especially with an interest in palliative care, I usually love books by medicos about their interesting anecdotes and life lessons. I love when they grapple with questions about life and death, suffering etc. As a Christian, I was excited to come across this book. For me, the medical anecdotes are too few, and the biblical explanations too simple. It feels like there are many paragraphs just listing biblical references without really relating them back to tangible stories. So unfortunately this wasn’t a hit with me, however I can still see that it may have a role for a Christian who is struggling to come to terms with their own or a close one’s suffering.

Thanks to NetGalley and the publisher for an opportunity to read the ARC.
