When Breath Becomes Air
Paul Kalanithi’s “When Breath Becomes Air” is a poignant memoir that grips you from the first page. As a neurosurgeon facing terminal cancer, Kalanithi grapples with life’s big questions, weaving together medicine, literature, and philosophy. His prose is both elegant and raw, offering a deeply personal glimpse into mortality. I found myself pausing often, moved by his insights and courage. It’s a book that stays with you long after the final page, challenging how we view life, death, and the space between.
