*** New in the Library *** Mountains Upon Mountains is a book about Dr. Paul Farmer, a man who set out to cure the world. The story, by masterful storyteller Tracy Kidder, is also a travel adventure spanning the globe-from Harvard to Haiti; from Russia to Peru. But it is mostly a story of hope and what one man can accomplish. if you ever felt that one person cannot make a difference in the world this story will dispel that belief. Dr. Paul Farmer takes on the World health Organization, powerful governments and big money and gradually by a personal force somewhat akin to Gandhi transforms medicine and how it becomes available to those most in need of it. The title comes from a Haitian proverb “Beyond mountains there are mountains”; meaning as you solve one problem another arises that leads you to solve it and then another. It could mean that we could simply look at life as a series of problems to be solved! But true or not this is truly a remarkable book by a Pulitzer Prize winning novelist. About Lutheran Immigration and Refugee Service At the close of the Second World War, one in five Lutherans worldwide had no home. “Displaced persons,” refugees from a continent ravaged by war, fleeing poverty, disease and likely death, many sought a new hope in the United States.
