How does it feel to be spat out of medical school into a world of pain, loss and trauma that you feel wholly ill-equipped to handle?

This is a deeply person account of life as a junior doctor in today's National Health Service, former television journalist turned doctor Rachel Clarke captures the extraordinary realities of ordinary life on the NHS front line.

A powerful polemic on the systematic de-graduation of Britain's most vital public institution, and a love letter of optimism and hope to that same health service and those who support it.

'Written with humanity and compassion that at times reduced me to tears' - Jon Snow, Channel 4 News.
