Dr. Jim Bryan, who died on January 8 in Chapel Hill at 88, was the kind of caring physician whom author Allan Gurganus is drawn to. Last Sunday’s The New York Times profiled Gurganus to prepare readers for the author’s new book, “The Uncollected Stories of Allan Gurganus.” The lead story in the new book, “The Wish for a Good Young Country Doctor,” features a rural Illinois town beset by cholera in 1849. Its young doctor fights valiantly against the awesome power of the epidemic. In his classic debut novel, “Oldest Living Confederate Widow Tells All,” Gurganus made Doc Collier preside over the death of lead character Lucy Marsden’s infant son.
