Being a part of a twelve-step program this book had appealed to me when a friend told me what it was about. I enjoyed the story, though it was heartbreaking, and the price was right. Thank you ebay.

Thank you for voting. If your vote meets our The Tennis Partner by Abraham VergheseReview created: 12/03/08

) I became interested in Dr. Verghese after seeing a movie adapted from his first book, My Own Country. I purchased that book and also The Tennis Partner, which this review is about. The Tennis Partner is a compassionately told true story about Dr. Verghese's friendship with a fellow doctor who struggles with drug addiction. They find they have a common passion for tennis, and for a while it seems the game enables them to open up and bond in a way that's like therapy for both.
I highly recommend any of Dr. Verghese's books. He writes from the heart and finds the story hidden beneath the story in the patients, friends, and situations he writes about.
