500 Originally published in Italian as Lacrime di sale: la mia
storia quotidiana di medico di Lampedusa fra dolore e
speranza by Mondadori in 2016.
520 "Situated more than one hundred miles off Italy's southern
coast, the rocky island of Lampedusa has hit world
headlines in recent years as the first port of call for
hundreds of thousands of African and Middle Eastern
refugees fleeing civil war and terrorism and hoping to
make a new life in Europe. Dr. Pietro Bartolo, who runs
the lone medical clinic on the island, has been caring for
many of them--both the living and the dead--for a quarter
century. Tears of Salt is Dr. Bartolo's moving account of
his life and work set against one of the signal crises of
our time. With quiet dignity and an unshakable moral
center, he tells unforgettable tales of pain and hope,
stories of those who didn't make it and those who did.
Tears of Salt is a lasting work of literature and an
intimate portrait of a remarkable man whose inspiring
message rings clear: 'We can't and we won't be governed by
our fears.'" -- Amazon.com.
