65 Doctors, Nurses, and Paramedics: What We Saw In Gaza

I worked as a trauma surgeon in Gaza from March 25 to April 8. I’ve volunteered in Ukraine and Haiti, and I grew up in Flint, Mich. I’ve seen violence and worked in conflict zones. But of the many things that stood out about working in a hospital in Gaza, one got to me: Nearly every day I was there, I saw a new young child who had been shot in the head or the chest, virtually all of whom went on to die. Thirteen in total.

Here's a gift link for the entire NYTimes piece: 65 Doctors, Nurses, and Paramedics: What We Saw In Gaza.


Best 100 Books of the 21st Century

The NYTimes asked 500+ authors what their favorite books of the 21st century were. The page is interactive so you can track what you've read or hope to read. My fave is on there at #52: Denis Johnson's Train Dreams.

I've posted the full list in the above link, but you can also browse by the polled authors, which may be of more interest.

If you're someone who's always looking for a good book recommendation, you may also appreciate this Ask Metafilter thread: Nonfiction Authors Who Know What They're Writing About.
