Dive into the world of Arrowsmith, a Pulitzer Prize-winning novel from 1926 that follows the journey of a brilliant medical student who evolves into a dedicated medical researcher in bustling New York. His life takes a dramatic turn when a devastating plague drives him to a Caribbean island, where he works tirelessly to develop sera and conduct vital research. Along the way, he encounters a cast of intriguing characters—some who challenge him professionally, others who touch his heart romantically. The striking parallels between the epidemic in this story and the pandemic of the 2020s lend a prophetic edge to the narrative. The author, who received the Nobel Prize in Literature in 1930, is celebrated primarily for Arrowsmith. (Lee Smalley)
