All Bleeding Stops Now available From the battlefields of Vietnam to the streets of Chicago during the 1968 Democratic convention; from an organ donor company in Ohio where he “strips dead bodies for a living,” to a remote African village where he cares for victims of the Biafran War, All Bleeding Stops is a grand and sweeping narrative tracing one man’s journey to reconcile love for his patients with the cold reality that there are some problems no doctor can ever fix.
" BCBS is a gripping, humane, humorous and enlightening read.” —Abraham Verghese
“Collins has a poet’s soul, whether describing the sunrise through a laborer’s eyes or what it means to be human through a physician’s.” — Booklist
