"Schwartz's magical novel is at once gripping and tender, and the intricate plot is engrossing as the reader tries to solve the mystery. She doesn't miss a beat in either the characterization or action, scattering clues with a delicate, precise hand. This is, in the end, the story of the anatomy of the human heart." - Booklist (starred review)

Dana Schwartz's Anatomy: A Love Story is a gothic tale full of mystery and romance.

Hazel Sinnett is a lady who wants to be a surgeon more than she wants to marry.

Jack Currer is a resurrection man who's just trying to survive in a city where it's too easy to die.

When the two of them have a chance encounter outside the Edinburgh Anatomist's Society, Hazel thinks nothing of it at first. But after she gets kicked out of renowned surgeon Dr. Beecham's lectures for being the wrong gender, she realizes that her new acquaintance might be more helpful than she first thought. Because Hazel has made a deal with Dr. Beecham: if she can pass the medical examination on her own, Beecham will allow her to continue her medical career. Without official lessons, though, Hazel will need more than just her books--she'll need corpses to study.

Lucky that she's made the acquaintance of someone who digs them up for a living.

But Jack has his own problems: strange men have been seen skulking around cemeteries, his friends are disappearing off the streets, and the dreaded Roman Fever, which wiped out thousands a few years ago, is back with a vengeance. Nobody important cares--until Hazel.

Now, Hazel and Jack must work together to uncover the secrets buried not just in unmarked graves, but in the very heart of Edinburgh society.

Percebi que fazer resenhas de livros que não gostei e/ou achei ok, é muito fácil, mas quando se trata de livros BONS que impactam algo na minha vida.. fico sem palavras, e foi o que aconteceu com Anatomia.

Sem palavras pra esse livro, essa história e principalmente: o PLOT.

Os personagens super desenvolvidos e apaixonantes. A história é extremamente envolvente, bem construída e ÚNICA.

"O amor não passa da agonia prolongada de esperar que o sentimento acabe. O medo de perder aqueles que amamos nos leva a cometer atos egoístas, tolos e cruéis. A única liberdade é se libertar do amor: E uma vez que o amor se foi, ele pode ser perfeito, cristalizado em suas lembrancas para sempre.”
