Doctors and Nurses Summary

Doctors and Nurses by Lucy Ellmann

The tranquillity of a rural backwater - SHATTERED! The ancient arts of medicine - EXPOSED! Her darling cleft-chinned doctor - FORCED TO FIGHT FOR HIS LIFE! It was a time of wiping. A time of bandaging. Of patients and their incessant needs. In a world where nurses never wash their hands, and doctors are the lowest of the low, one enormous nurse stands up for LOVE - a nurse that will make you fart with fear...

Doctors and Nurses Reviews

'As lunatic and splenetic and distinctive as anything that will be published this year ... I begin to suspect she may be some sort of genius' Daily Telegraph 'It is somehow hard not to be optimistic in the hands of a writer so angry and intelligent ... Doctors & Nurses is a novel bracingly alive, making more polite books cadaverous by comparison' Guardian 'Both a howl of rage and an absolute scream ... a short, sharp tale of lust, self-loathing and involuntary euthanasia, with the emotional volume cranked right up throughout and the jokes coming thick and fast. Ingenious and hilarious' Time Out 'Hilariously, eye-wateringly funny ... I have found a new hero in Lucy Ellmann' Scotsman
