Exiled From The Womb: Tales of a Women's Doctor

By Adrian Saangeorzan and Adrian Sângeorzan

Literary Nonfiction. Memoir. "This memoir presents us with a new Candide, a young, optimistic gynecologist, adrift in a Communist nightmare, and then suddenly face to face with the doubtful 'paradise' of a New World. Whether it comes to helping desperate women in Romania, who've been forced to have unwanted pregnancies by a tyrannical dictator, dealing with right-to-life fanatics in New York or navigating the bewildering bureaucracy of a Manhattan hospital, Sangeorzan always maintains a refreshing sense of irony, a courageous compassion and a knee-slapping spirit of humor. He embodies something that's been missing from the American scene since William Carlos Williams: the poet-doctor a person who works to heal our all-too-impermanent bodies without sacrificing the sensitivity, intellect and humor that nourish our minds and souls." Bruce Benderson"
