The stories, based on Bulgakov’s personal experiences, are about inner struggle and compassion for one’s neighbor, about a sense of duty and about hope even in the most desperate circumstances.
A young doctor, fresh out of university, is sent to work in a hospital in the wilderness. There, alone with difficult cases, ignorant patients and hard daily work, he must fight his own fears and doubts. "Notes of a Young Doctor" is a hymn (and at the same time a requiem) to zemstvo medicine, where the hero balances between asceticism and despair.
The book is presented in a classic design. It also includes the stories "The Extraordinary Adventures of the Doctor" and "I Killed".
