The Plague and I, Paperback
Descriere
""Getting tuberculosis in the middle of your life is like starting downtown to do a lot of urgent errands and being hit by a bus. When you regain consciousness you remember nothing about the urgent errands. You can't even remember where you were going."" Thus begins Betty Mac Donald's memoir of her year in a sanatorium just outside Seattle battling the ""White Plague."" Mac Donald uses her offbeat humor to make the most of her time in the TB sanatorium--making all of us laugh in the process.
