The work covers a wide array of essential topics, including inflammation, tumors, and specific organ pathologies, all analyzed through the lens of surgical diagnosis. Written with exceptional clarity and scientific rigor, "Surgical Pathology" emphasizes the importance of understanding the dynamic life history of a disease rather than merely its end-stage appearance.

L' amore è cieco
Edimburgo, 1894. Brodie Moncur ha ventiquattro anni e da sei lavora per la Channon & Co., il quarto maggior produttore di pianoforti in Gran Bretagna. Valente accordatore, viene invitato un giorno da Ainsley Channon a trasferirsi nella sede di Parigi, dove i pianoforti Channon stentano a conquistare le simpatie francesi. Nell'imponente negozio parigino, Brodie abbraccia con entusiasmo la sua nuova vita, lontana dalla Scozia, soprattutto, lontana dal suo tirannico padre. Si rimbocca le maniche e concepisce un'idea brillante: ingaggiare un grande pianista, un virtuoso dello strumento, che suoni un Channon nei suoi concerti e dia, cosi, lustro all'azienda. L'occasione per realizzarla gliela offre il Theatre de la Republique, in una serata in cui John Kilbarron, ex bambino prodigio e musicista di indiscusso talento chiamato Le Liszt irlandais, esegue impeccabilmente la Sinfonia n. 3 di Tchajkovskij e un poema sinfonico di Panin per la voce solista di Lydia Blum, soprano russa. Alla fine della serata, Brodie si reca nei camerini degli artisti e, bussando a una porta, si ritrova al cospetto di una giovane donna. Capelli biondi mossi e arruffati, occhi azzurri e labbra rosee, una vestaglia sgargiante addosso a coprire un'evidente nudità, una sigaretta tra le labbra con qualche briciola di tabacco raccolta alla punta della lingua, Lydia Blum, la soprano russa, fissa i suoi occhi nei suoi, e una grossa bolla d'aria si fa largo, come un pugno, nel petto di Brodie Moncour, giovane accordatore scozzese.

Inquietudine
È l'estate del 1976, un'interminabile calda estate in cui l'Inghilterra boccheggia in una calura senza fine. Ruth Gilmartin è giunta in macchina nel minuscolo villaggio di Middle Ashton dove vive sua madre Sally. Tutto sarebbe tediosamente uguale alle innumerevoli volte in cui Ruth è accorsa a casa di Sally col piccolo Jochen al seguito, se sua madre non avesse un comportamento a dir poco bizzarro. Ha cominciato a sbirciare fuori della finestra, verso il bosco di querce, faggi e noci. Poi ha afferrato un raccoglitore di cuoio e le ha detto porgendoglielo: 'Vorrei che lo leggessi'. Sul contenitore c'era scritto: "Storia di Eva Delektorskaja". Romanzo che trasporta sulla pagina la cupa corrente dell'irrequietezza che scorre sotto la superficie di una vita ordinaria, "Inquietudine" ci offre un ritratto di donna spia mai apparso nella letteratura contemporanea: Eva Delektorskaja, affascinante donna russa divenuta per quarant'anni l'irreprensibile Sally Gilmartin.
