Publisher's Summary

Der junge Arzt Dr. Roy Basch verbringt sein erstes Praxisjahr im "House of God". Voller Enthusiasmus und Erwartungen, beseelt von dem Wunsch, zu helfen und zu heilen, muss er im Alltag bald erkennen, dass die Medizin ein dreckiges Geschäft ist. Verstört und desillusioniert versuchen er und seine jungen Kollegen, sich einen letzten Rest an Nächstenliebe zu bewahren. Drastisch und makaber stellt Shem einen bis heute vollkommen normalen Krankenhausalltag dar, in dem ein einzelner Mensch wenig, Profit dagegen alles zählt.

Bei seinem Erscheinen löste der Roman einen handfesten Skandal aus.

Three stars given (not) for a book I can not understand

Identifying the language that the book was to be narrated in would have been beneficial, poor show Audible.
