I adore Adam’s humour, and I suppose it’s the type of humour that is necessary when working in the medical field in order to not lose your mind. This is such an important book that detailed the realities of a junior doctor, and can more generally be applied to someone working on the NHS frontline.
This book had me laughing out loud at some moments and then crying in others. The ending. I knew something was coming because we are aware from the start that Adam is no longer a practicing doctor but don’t know the reason for that. It’s devastating.
The ending of his relationship. How it’s briefly mentioned, and I wonder how much of a role his (absolutely absurd) working hours played in that.
Such an important read.
I’m very glad I picked this book up at the charity shop. It’s quite gory at times, and it’s hard to imagine that this is what frontline NHS staff see every single day and still go into work the next morning. Suddenly, my job doesn’t seem so scary. This book just puts everything into perspective really.
