The Tumor by John Grisham

. RSS

THE TUMOR presents a medical fiction story about a patient Paul who is 35 years old and diagnosed with a malignant brain tumor. Paul’s treatment is shown, and his future looks like it will end soon.

In comparison, the potential of a different reality is shown using medical fiction based on the direction of natural science in a fictional future.

John Grisham says THE TUMOR is the most important book he has ever written. In this short book, he provides readers with a fictional account of how a real, new medical technology could revolutionize the future of medicine by curing with sound.

The book is, of course, not a legal thriller. It is short and well written. If the story offers hope, then it shows that science clearly brings hope and that hope could be considered far more valuable than just offering a well-written legal thriller. Even so, an excellent legal thriller has more value than Grishan wants to admit. Not the best statement, and the book wasn’t that great.
