**THE MILLION COPY BESTSELLER**

''Rattling. Heartbreaking. Beautiful.'' Atul Gawande, bestselling author of Being Mortal


What makes life worth living in the face of death?

At the age of thirty-six, on the verge of completing a decade''s training as a neurosurgeon, Paul Kalanithi was diagnosed with inoperable lung cancer. One day he was a doctor treating the dying, the next he was a patient struggling to live.

When Breath Becomes Air chronicles Kalanithi''s transformation from a medical student asking what makes a virtuous and meaningful life into a neurosurgeon working in the core of human identity - the brain - and finally into a patient and a new father.

Paul Kalanithi died while working on this profoundly moving book, yet his words live on as a guide to us all. When Breath Becomes Air is a life-affirming reflection on facing our mortality and on the relationship between doctor and patient, from a gifted writer who became both.

''A vital book about dying. Awe-inspiring and exquisite. Obligatory reading for the living'' Nigella Lawson
