Katy Butler's Knocking on Heaven's Door: The Path to a Better Way of Death (Scribner) is an exquisitely written, expertly reported memoir and exposé of modern medicine that leads the way to more humane, less invasive end-of-life care — based on the author's acclaimed New York Times Magazine piece. With a reporter's skill, a poet's eye, and a daughter's love, Butler explores what happens when our terror of death collides with the technological imperatives of modern medicine. Butler's book is a visionary map through the labyrinth of a broken and morally adrift medical system.
