What Next, Doctor?

Meer over het boek

Dr Robert Clifford takes us through his early years of marriage and the birth of his three children. His path is beset by a collection of rich and varied characters. Among them are the long-married couple whose recipe for happiness was a row twice a week; two old soldiers whose feud belied an abiding friendship; and the accident-prone ex-miner whose ailments and injuries made him a medical curiosity. There are also partners and friends, whose support and comfort Dr Clifford needed to cope with the million-to-one tragedy that almost made him give up medicine for good.
