Medicine is an art just as much as it is a science. In Twelve Cases, Dr. Mierlak combines the two using a creative literary imagination and form. While he writes clearly about the facts of each case, he eloquently demonstrates the importance of how he relates to these facts. He has an ability to connect with the individuals who enter his office, outside of the scope of why they entered it. This is why, I believe, he stands out as both a doctor and a writer. In case 4 “The Worst Call in the World”, I was reminded of the late philosopher Richard Rorty who wrote about the value and difference between what is said and how it is said.“A turn of phrase in a conversation or a novel or a poem- a new way of putting things, a novel metaphor or simile-can make all the difference to the way we look at a whole range of phenomena. So can an encounter with a new and strange person in real life or in a novel or play.” (Voparil and Bernstein 391)Dr. Mierlak’s honest prose “makes all the difference” in how the reader interprets a day in the life of a therapist when he writes :“Then it came to me. There was something in the way Peter spoke. I can’t tell you exactly how, but the words, the tempo, and the timbre of his speech combined to exert a Svengali-like effect. Peter exuded a certain kind of, intimidation, for lack of a better word, that inhibited me from questioning or challenging him. This quality, as distinct an attribute as eye color, communicated without words. “There will be no discussion.” It disarmed me. (Mierlak 73)Twelve Cases is just what the doctor ordered; a home run with the bases loaded, especially if you are willing to accept that “the next book you read or the next person you meet can change your life.” (Voparil and Bernstein 392).Mierlak, Daniel.
