Carol Cassella brings best-selling Oxygen

to her book signing at A Book For All Seasons, Sunday July 12, 1:00 - 3:00 PM.

Written by a real-life anesthesiologist, this riveting national best-seller and 2008 Indie Next selection is a story of intimate family relationships colliding with an explosive, high stakes medical drama. A nightmarish operating room disaster and the ensuing legal morass, together with the quieter crisis of her aging father's slide into dependence, force a doctor to confront the choices she has made along life's path, including whom to love, whom to trust, and what ultimately matters. Oxygen climaxes in a final twist as heartrending as it is redeeming. Voted one of the year's best novels by Library Journal.

This medical mystery is told with lyric grace and deep compassion... Carol Cassella has the heart of a poet and the mind of a physician; the result is a striking meditation on the complexities of love, the fragile miracle that is the human body, and the burdens and blessings of being a healer. Closing this book left me with a sense of wonder, gratitude, and hard-won redemption.
— Stephanie Kallos, author of Broken For You

It's a clear-your-schedule and turn-off-the-phone novel, the kind you want to hide away and read straight through to the end. Oxygen tells the story of ... a doctor's worst nightmare... Building to a stunning and inexorable climax. ...Oxygen is a story of tragedy and redemption, intricately plotted and told in a compelling voice that will keep you riveted to the page. — Susan Wiggs, N.Y. Times best-selling author
