Descripción

Patheon Books, 1976 New York. 8ºM (21×14 cm) 174 págs. Rústica ilustrada. Cubierta algo deslucida. Muy buen estado general. «This is John Berger’s and photographer Jean Mohr’s first experimental collaboration, a deeply moving portrait of John Sassall, a country doctor who has chosen to work in a remote and impoverished English rural community. His intimate contact with his patients and his own passion for knowledge make him into «the clerk of the records» for the area, a man who can speak what his deprived community feels and knwos only in an inarticulate fashion. Starting with a woodcutter pinned under a fallen tree and in desperate need of a doctor, and ending with the question of what a human life is worth in our society, A Fotunate Man paints an imaginative portrait of the complex relationship between a man and his environment. The queston raised concerning the nature of medicine in our time serve to bring out the broader issue of how society wastes and empties most of the lives it does not destroy.»
