Fingal O'Reilly, Irish Doctor

An Irish Country Novel

De: Patrick Taylor

Narrado por: John Keating

A brand-new tale in Patrick Taylor's New York Times bestselling series

Fans of Taylor's bestselling Irish Country novels know Dr. Fingal Flahertie O'Reilly as the irascible senior partner of a general practice in the colorful Irish village of Ballybucklebo. Newly married to his once long-lost sweetheart, he's ready to settle into domestic bliss, but there's always something requiring his attention, be it a riding accident, a difficult patient with a worrisome heart condition, a spot of grouse-hunting, or even some tricky shenanigans at the local dog races.

The everyday complications of village life are very different from the challenges Fingal faced nearly thirty years earlier, when fresh out of medical school, the young Dr. O'Reilly accepts a post at the Aungier Street Dispensary, tending to the impoverished denizens of Dublin's tenement slums. Yet even as he tries to make a difference, Fingal's tireless devotion to his patients may cost him his own true love….

Shifting back and forth between the present and the past, Patrick Taylor's captivating Fingal O'Reilly, Irish Doctor, brings to life both the green young man O'Reilly once was and the canny village doctor readers have come to know and admire.

An irish Pleasure

The simple life of Irish country folk, wonderfully woven and marvelously told; Patrick Taylor has done it again.

Entertaining As Usual

Good background to Dr. O'Reilly's early days going smoothly between then and his present.day practice, All the usual characters and the odd new one with Arthur Guinness and Lady Macbeth still making their amusing appearances. Good pace.

Charming and Heartwarming and Hillarious

I bought the first book in this series and have been in love with the Irish world of Dr. O'Reilly ever since. This book is just as entertaining as the first. I love this series every bit as much as the James Herriot series. Enjoy.
