About This Novel
"The Lucky One: The Story of a Country Doctor" is groundbreaking in both social observation and medical philosophy. The author and the photographer went into the countryside of England for three months, following the footsteps of rural doctor John Sasser, recording his step-by-step daily life of saving lives and healing the wounded. John Sasser graduated from the Royal College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists, but practiced medicine in the poor countryside of England. He is a lucky person. While saving lives and healing the wounded, he has witnessed birth, old age, illness and death here, and preserved the collective memory of this place. He appreciates the bright spots of humanity in patients, who are often trapped in the fear of illness and death. This thoughtful graphic record reproduces the responsibilities and roles of doctors in real society and shares their thoughts on life.
