In this eye-opening account of life in the ER, Paul Austin recalls how the daily grind of long, erratic shifts and endless hordes of patients with sad stories sent him down a path of bitterness and cynicism. Gritty, powerful, and ultimately redemptive, Something for the Pain is a revealing glimpse into the fragility of compassion and sanity in the industrial setting of today’s hospitals.

Excellent Book, Poor Performance
Revisado: 03-29-19
The story and underlying meaning Dr Austin is attempting to communicate is entertaining and poignant. Unfortunately the narrator manages to make southern accents sound English, and Jamaicans sound Irish. In addition to mispronunciations of many common words; for example frustrating has two r’s, both of which should be pronounced. These problems with the narration detract greatly from the overall enjoyment of this audiobook. I will make an effort to avoid further performances by Mr Randolph.

Why would a middle-aged businessman who had never even spent the night outdoors, attempt to hike the entire Appalachian Trail? Bill Walker, a former commodities trader in Chicago and London, and an avid walker, had developed a virtual obsession to hike this historic 2,175 mile footpath in one hiking season. In the spring of 2005 he set off from his home state of Georgia, hoping to make it to Mount Katahdin in northern Maine before the arrival of winter.

In his own words

I really enjoyed Skywalker’s retelling of his own tale. His southern accent adds the spice of authenticity and is a pleasure to listen to. However he talks very fast throughout the entire book, which makes his story sound slightly frantic.
