Title: A long dark night
Description: In Dr. Walter W. Benjamin's third book, he confronts the tumultuous challenge of facing death and embracing life. When Benjamin meets a personal warfare against an aggressive life-threatening cancer, he decides to keep a journal to document his treatment and experiences--the disfiguring surgery, the energy-sapping chemotherapy, the burning radiation--and pays homage to the small army of people, including doctors, nurses, and technicians, who join the battle. --
