Description



Book Synopsis



La doctora Cole es una mujer de nuestro tiempo. Tiene cuarenta años y su vida está determinada por un continuo conflicto de intereses.

Esta moderna novela es la última entrega de la trilogía de la familia Cole, conformada además por El médico y Chamán.

Las exigencias del matrimonio frente a la ambición profesional, los avances científicos frente a la conciencia social; la vida urbana frente al aprecio por los valores rurales, así como la lucha por preservar la vida frente al convencimiento del poder de decisión de una mujer.

Fiel a la tradición familiar, que ha hecho de la medicina un sacerdocio, la doctora R.J. Cole decide dejar Boston para volver al campo y trabajar como médico rural. Allí, en las colinas de Massachusetts, podrá recobrar ese don de adivinación tan peculiar que ya distinguió a sus antepasados y volverá a descubrir aquellos placeres que la gran ciudad le había arrebatado.

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

With Choices, Noah Gordon brings to a close his great trilogy spanning the generations of the Cole medical dynasty. Beginning with the legendary 11th-century doctor Robert J. Cole, each eldest son has borne the same name and middle initial, and some have possessed the uncanny "sixth sense" known as The Gift--the terrible and instinctive knowledge that someone is about to die.

In Choices, it emerges again in the present, but this time in a daughter, Roberta Jeanne d'Arc Cole, known as R.J. She defies her beloved father when she chooses to study law rather than medicine, yet destiny is to overtake her when she realizes that she has inherited The Gift. As she holds the hands of a sick man, R.J. feels a dreadful certainty that he is going to die. Tragically, he is her own lover. Struggling with her grief, R.J. knows she must bow to the inevitable and become a physician. But her life changes when she moves to a small-town practice and is faced with a terrible dilemma.
