Dr. Karlawish's novel gets to the heart of the strange relationship between Dr. William Beaumont and Northern Michigan fur trader Alexis St. Martin, who, after a shotgun misfires, bears a hole in his stomach which never quite heals over. Beaumont takes the opportunity to study the process of digestion, seeking to cement his reputation--but what does St. Martin have to say about their arrangement?
Historical Novels Review called Open Wound "well-written and fascinating," and the Wall Street Journal said that "Karlawish sketches their fraught relationship in the ensuing decades artfully, with clear relevance to the ethical questions of modern medicine."
