"Six Months in Sudan : A Young Doctor in a War-torn Village"
by Dr. James Maskalyk
Early MSF blog readers will recall ’Suddenly…Sudan'. The blog was so popular that Dr. James Maskalyk first book, ’Six Months in Sudan', releases on 14 April 2009. Fans of ’Suddenly…Sudan' will recognize James’ familiar voice, the people he met, and selected blog excerpts which structure the book. However, both established and new fans will be taken with the personality and depth of James’ new writing, and a story arch that stretches from the abrupt departure from Canada, through the daily activities in Sudan, to the emotional return home. MSF is supporting the launch of the book on 19 April 2009 in Toronto.
