The author writes in the first person. He narrates the story by including his own thoughts and experiences. This is important. It demonstrates how Dr. Paul Farmer affects the people he encounters. The author, Tracy Kidder, was clearly moved by Farmer. He found Farmer to be an intriguing and compassionate man. Kidder also found Farmer's charity, Partners In Health, to be worthy of his support. The author's biography informs one that, like many of the characters in the book, he is a Harvard graduate and resides in Massachusetts.
