The House Of God

Description for THE HOUSE OF GOD by Samuel Shem, M.D.:

THE HILARIOUS NOVEL OF THE HEALING ARTS THAT REVEALS EVERYTHING YOUR DOCTOR NEVER WANTED YOU TO KNOW

Six eager interns--they saw themselves as modern saviors-to-be. They came from the top of their medical school class to the bottom of the hospital staff to serve a year in the time-honored tradition, racing to answer the flash of on-duty call lights and nubile nurses. But only the Fat Man--the calm, all-knowing resident--could sustain them in their struggle to survive, to stay sane, to love--and even to be doctors when their harrowing year was done.
